Nice pictures.

Bandwidth is related to the number of people who view the site and not
the size & number of files there.
Viewing the site uses bandwidth, more viewings equals greater
bandwidth usage.



Aha...that's why i sometimes TRY to d/l something and i get error, like too
many downloads, please try tomorrow...


Probably true if it is a d/l from a free website (geocities, angelfire,
et al).
The other reason could be too many people trying to d/l the same file or
too many people accessing (or d/l-ing other files) the site at the same
time.
There is a limit on how much data can be sent (or taken, depending on
your viewpoint) from a server at once before the available transmission
bandwidth is exceded.
Bandwidth is like a waterpipe, it has a fixed upper limit (like the
diameter of the bore) and can only conduct a certain amount of data at
one time.
A good example is your internet connection speed.
