You have unlimited space on Pixtress, so don't worry about running out. However, something I noticed - the files are unusually large. For example, this attached image (which is one of my favorites) weighs 1.1 MB, while being relatively small in resolution (1 megapixel roughly). JPEGs can be compressed much further without visible quality loss. Please now take a look at the second attachment - I just re-saved it in Irfanview with 90% quality setting as well as removing unnecessary meta information from the file, and it weighs only 150 KB as a result. What software do you use when rendering the files? Do you do it directly from DAZ or do the final touch-ups in photoshop? If you play with JPEG saving settings, I'm sure you can get considerably smaller filesize while keeping the same resolution.
I'll switch to JPEG for uploading in the future.......... right now they're in PNG unfilecompressed and they're worked on in Corel, they take ages to render that's why they're simple.

i can not add buildings or full background scenes or Daz will crash, which of course kills the atmosphere, the screen has to be about 50% empty for a render to work and i can not add realistic skin tones either.

this PC is a top end gaming rig, but to render really well in Daz Nvidia iray you need graphics cards in SLI etc, you really do need a massive rig.........

Daz hates rendering lots of grass and trees, it slows the PC right down until it crashes, which is a massive problem because without detailed backgrounds, the erotic fantasy doesn't truly exist.
