$5 per month for when you pull so many images it's basically abuse is user hostile?

No developer starting out is going to hit 200 images in 6 hours, and even if the did, they would go "heh" and then either take a break or pony up the 5$.

5$! It's way too little money for those limits, there should be brackets all the way up to 5000$ per month. Same for Rubygems and NPM. It's ridiculous that those are struggling organizations that can barely afford to have professionals work on them, when they're absolutely essential to whole industries.

I wish they would force us to pay them.
