Francesca watch out for your bandwith usage. Geocities on a free site allows 3GB per month (averaged per hour IIRC). You have around 1MB on your site so far, so if my maths is correctish, if 4 people visit the site each hour and download every file, you will likely blow your bandwidth limit which will result in the site being made ā€˜unavailableā€™ for a hour or so. I think they only allow 15MB for storage, so youā€™re also likely to blow your storage limit sooner rather than later if the popularity stays or increases. Not a crit., but you may wanna take OpalCat suggestion on the free space. Youā€™ll likely need it. As a suggestion, you may also want to allow people to ā€˜sortā€™ on the date the file was uploaded so they can see that ā€˜latestā€™ additions. Excellent work and wish I had thought of it. ---

Hurrah! My wav to mp3 converter went bizarre on me but Iā€™ve found a new free one that works just fine, soā€¦ We now have **Euty** and **Nutmagnet**. Go, listen to your fellow dopers and esteemed moderators, then add your voice. Then your Sunday can be complete. ---

I think this thread really deserves a bump. I visited the Voice site a while back, and I loved it! Great idea, and as long as you have the space, I hope a lot of the Teeminators here supply their voices. Mebbe Iā€™ll do mine when I get home. Also, **Francesca** , how did you begin this? Itā€™s not a geocities thing, I assume. I wanted to put the idea out to the people on my message board, but Iā€™m not sure how. ---

Wow. Bumpage. I still check the site from time to time, though it seems the dearth of incoming voices has ceased. ---
