DUE TO MANY MANY MANY REPORTS OF HOTLINKING AGAIN AND..... we have again been driven to an over 350.00 bandwidth overage charge - NO DOUBT to these hotlinkers who have NO REGARD for the terms of this site and the proper etiquette of the Internet in generate. IT IS THEFT

Anyone who is found to be sharing on ANY GROUP (Yahoo, etc.) direct links will be banned and/or put on moderated status at SBB without need for further notification or contact regarding this situation unless we see fit.

In order to prevent further issues, etc. and for us to resolve this - we are doing a major overhaul of the downloads area. We will also be weeding out VERY OLD and outdated elements that we feel need to "go". New submissions guidelines and amount of time elements will stay at SBB will change as well and posted in the next week so that everyone is aware of the change.

Please don't fret during this time if it appears that certain areas are "losing" downloads.... we are removing them as we either "clean them out" and indeed delelte them from SBB OR move them to our new downloads area which we hope to reveal in the next week or so.

Registered Members are now limited to only 15 file downloads per day. This is to help offset the cost that is incurred here at SBB for housing the thousands of downloads done per day and for free

Paid Subscribers will continue to have the ability of unlimited download limits etc. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post about the 15 downloads! I am better informed now!!

As for bypassing info, I will say that I am a new member and am still navigating my way around as time permits!! So, thank you for your time and patience in responding to a question that has both been asked and has been answered previously!!

I appreciate your service!!
