I'm doing this assignment on art group or movement and most likely I choose DA. I've gotten most of the information I want but the hardest to get is the techical side of dA. I want to talk a bit about the technologies used because I know some advanced shit is used here. It would add credits to my assignment if I can highlight how technology plays a major role in dA. So for instance you can give me estimated figures on bandwidth, storage, etc. Nothing precise, it can be off my couple thousands, but just something to go by, u know? I'd REALLY REALLY REALLY appreciate if you can get back to me on this. Note me or something. Thanks.
You can ask me publically or in a note, the answers would be the same.

Question:
Is it possible you can highlight the major web technologies used by deviantART?
On average, what's the amount of bandwidth used? No need to be accurate, just give me an idea.
and since I'm asking...
Where do you, the CEO, see deviantART say 5 years from now?
we serve around 400 mbits per second of images and text.
The potential for deviantART within 5 years is rather limitless. I see us embracing hundreds of additional forms of art work and empowering a massive community of artists far further than we have even today. We'll do this by providing a long list of tools and resources that will aid in the creation, promotion, distribution and sale of art.
Without getting too specific, anything an artist of any kind might want to do on the web is fair game.
Good luck with your project!
