 * How much space you need depends on way too many things to b able ot say what 
   your site will need. Obviusly any site that grows over time will need more and
   more space as it goes along. The best idea is to upgrade your hosting account
   as it’s needed. Your hosting company will be more than happy to help you out 
   with this.
 * As far as feeeing up some space… the first thing that you’d need to know is what’s
   using yoru space now??? Most hosting control panels have some way of displaying
   disk usage, so I’d start there. Keep in mind that a lot of your storage could
   be emails. I’ve got a few clients here that have 3GB plans that have about 250MB
   of space in their webiste, and over 2GB of email, so I know that it does add 
   up very quickly.

 * public_html holds the biggest part….should i refer to the theme designer on how
   to simplify things?
 * or any articles about this issue?

 * public_html is where wordpress and all the images you use reside.
