Webhosting

Having tonnes of fun posting on forums of free web hosts asking please explain questions about claims of supported features this week.

There are plenty of free webhosts with php. I haven't found a free web host that I feel comfortable uploading anything onto that supports ImageMagick.

I will need an image manipulation application if I am going to be able to convert SVG to PNG.

Anyway, I've been looking at www.000webhost.com and for the most part I'm impressed at this free web host. I created an account because the features page listed Image magic. Well for now its lie. They don't have image magick installed on their servers, they may do soon but not at the moment.

Hey, Alastair mentioned you were on to something re free web hosting that supports php.

I'm planning to build a php form into my site, nothing at all complicated, just something that's going to collect a form entry and generate an email to my 'client'. Have you come across something that looks ok for this purpose? My other concern is, as its a business site, the url can't be too random... What are your thoughts?
