Rollover in Flickr

So, I got the idea yesterday and had been thinking about it. Finally, over launch today I posted the topic in flickr's idea forum. Here's what I wrote:

"OK, most of us know how rollover minute works at Cingular. The minutes you didn't use gets rolled over to the next month and so forth. Well, what does flickr has to do with it?!

I think it would be great if flickr offered the same thing with its UPLOAD LIMITS. And it should be offered to both paid & non paid user. The idea is very simple.

For example, consider a non paid (i.e. free) user with a 20MB upload limits each month. Month 1, the user only used 5MB. Month 2, he/she has 25MB and so forth. At the end of the year, any unused limits will be removed, again just like Cingular.

So, in theory flickr is giving each free user 240MB capacity each year. Simple.

Thanks."

Let me know what you guys think? Together maybe we can all encourage flickr to implement this feature. Here's a link to the forum:
