I currently have fixtatik's myspace layout previewer script in one database, however I'm only using 0.22 MB out of a maximum 100 MB. I'm currently installing wordpress and I was wondering if I should put wordpress in the same database as the other script above, or if I should make a new one?

it's perfectly fine. as long as they have different table names (the previewer uses fms_ to start each table, and wordpress uses wp_). i'm working on making FMS a wordpress plugin anyway, so it might be beneficial.

on the other hand, it also depends on how big you plan on making your site. if you write a lot in your blog, or if you have a lot of layouts, then you might want to put them in separate databases. wordpress can end up taking up loads of space because it saves drafts as unpublished entries every time you edit a page or post.
