Exactly what type of sever do i need for the adoptable pets site?
What hosting company do you have?
...Also give links....Thanks, Steve
This will run on almost any host that supports PHP and MySQL. Some free hosts may not work though, especially anything that disables readfile support or doesn't support GD, but most hosts work perfectly fine with this script.
If i get paid hosting ....can i have two or more sites on the same sever? one virtual pet site, a another Browser-Based RPG Game site on the same server.
I guess so, but with the site I gave you, it's free and you can have more than one site. In fact, I have 4 sites on one account.

True, but I will warn... Adoptable sites by their nature have a high MYSQL pull and many free hosts as soon as you start to get a following will find you having to many DB calls and shut you down quick! This is why I also can not recommend using a "shout box" or using the random feature above 20 at a time. I have seen paid hosts shut down sites & free shut them down much quicker!
I would recommend Hostmonster while the site is young & PUHosting once it out grows Hostmonster, as they specialize in high MYSQL calls for sites & set their servers accordianly are a reasonable price.

OK...I just got my hosting with Hostmonster! (thanks, Sea) now I'm waiting for my paypal bill (to have a Premium Membership ) ....I'm going to install this on my own....but if i need someone to install it for me I can get help ....right?
Yeah, I'll help you if you get stuck on any steps during the installation, just post a new support thread on the step you're stuck on and I'll offer assistance.
I received your request for a Premium Membership and I will send that out shortly. Please do not pay that bill though until the script is up and running successfully for you as there are no refunds for the adoptables script premium memberships once they are purchased.
Thanks,
Brandon
OOOps...i paid it ...lol...I'm not worried about it. I'm sure it will be ok.
