1. I've had the problem

When you use too much bandwidth, they shut it down.

DU is a high traffic site. Posting a single pic in your sig will defnitley use a lot of bandwidth throught the day. One pic in a heavily used thread will do the same.

2. Bandwidth

Form what I gather, your web host allows a total of 5.5 gigs of its or download from your web site. By posting a picture in-line in a thread here, you had massive hits to your site because anytime someone viewed the thread, it hit your web site bandwidth. You'll have to wait for the end of the month, probably, for your site to be back up.
