Q: I just got a my space yesterday and when i try to upload more then five photos it freezes then i have to close the internet could it be my computer i have a vista laptop or is it my space? Thanks for your help~
A: Actually, it could be either, or both. Computers have limited bandwidth, and even with a dedicated T1 line on your part, you're limited to the upstream rate of the host. With an average JPEG file taking 2 MB, you're asking the host to accept quite a large amount of data quickly. Fine if you're using simplex or half-duplex, being the only one transmitting/receiving data. But if you're using full-duplex, with MILLIONS of users, like myspace has, you could be asking for significant lag times, particularly with large digital files like pictures, full stereo audio, and streaming video. Try to send pictures one at a time, and use an upload manager to ensure you're not sending too much data too fast for the host computer to handle.
