Title: Looking for some online web space for storage purposes
Post by: Cerberus on May 15, 2005, 09:17:04 AM: I\'m looking for some webspace for storing small zipped files (usually about 30-90kb) from where other people can download them.

I\'m not actually looking to build a complete website, just want somewhere I can upload my zipped stuff to, so getting loads of space is not a priority. 5-10mb would be more than enough. Also, it would be ideal for it to have fairly generous bandwidth allowances, as what I want it for, is for downloading some images I make.

Before someone goes into mm mode, and says "google is your friend", let me tell you, I\'ve already tried that, for the most of it, it\'s just piles of useless shite. The others seem like viable possibilities, up until I get to the page where the small print is on, and after wasting my time typing all my info in, I get to that page to find they have restrictions after all. Why can\'t they put the legal stuff on page 1?

So, in summary, I\'m after about 5-10mb of space with decent bandwidth allowances, where I can upload and remote link to, zipped files for other people to download.

Oh, and most importantly, it has to be free.

Any suggestions?

I just created an account there, I\'m going to try it out to see what it\'s like.

I posted on their support forum asking about remote linking and they seem happy with it.

Thanks, it seems to be just what I was looking for.

1024 MB (one gig) of web space
PHP + CGI + SSI Scripting (coming soon)
100 gigabytes of bandwidth
Optional \'no-popup\' ads...your site stays clean.
Free Support from professionals.
MySql free upgrade options.
No file size limits!

I wonder how long they\'ll be able to keep it up.
