I guess that wouldnt work. lol.

Thing is, the servers use hardly any CPU time, it's all in the RAM and the HDD access speeds.
The 100mbps uplink would do nicely though!

Well its a 100mbps port... 10mbps unmetered Tier1 Uplink to the internet... and its really fast.

You'd need more than a 10mbps uplink if you're to be fast consistently definitely.

I reccomend the purchaser drop 4 of the current ServerMatrix servers and continue with them, as they're nice and reliable!

This would considerably increase the profitability of the site!

Why would you want to sell this site?

If your making $700 profit a month with the potential to increase this, plus the fact the site takes hardly any time to maintain.

I don't see why you wouldn't just keep it.

I need a lump sum unfortunately, otherwise I'd love to keep the site myself.

How about search engines? Do you have any good keyword searches that you obtain traffic from?

Not a huge amount of search engine traffic currently, mostly it seems to be "IMGspot" as the main keyword, and a few from "Free image uploads".
Definitely an avenue for getting even more traffic

We have advertised on several forums yes.

Out of complete curiosity, does anyone ever give donations to the site?

I noticed you have a donate option available.

If so, how much funds have you generated from donations alone?
