    Looking for some space.

    I need some free space on the net somewhere that allows me to upload a .zip file (10 meg max) and be able to link directly to it. Anyone know of such a site? Websamba was alright for a while but they seem to think my account was never created yet my site is still there.

    Google's got a million. What are your disk space / bandwidth requirements?

    I did a search on google but most of them have something about max 1 meg per file and my file is ATM about 6 megs zipped... will grow to about 10megs maybe 15 in a year.... bandwidth I would think max of 100 dls a month so around 1 gig...

    fateback.com doesn't look bad, though I haven't looked into maximum filesizes.

    The maximum size of one file can be up to 200 kb.

    I'd offer to host it for you, but I'm not about to give up a gig/mo... get your own hosting. It's not that expensive.

    I'll host you, what do you need? I can give you ftp access, an sql database...whatever you need. Just reply here or pm me or message me on msn/aim ([email protected] / thejefffiles com) and I'll set you up with whatever you need. I can also give you a subdomain if you need one (http://yourdomain.TheJeffFiles.com/)

    Oh, and unlimited file size and bandwidth too.

    Have you considered using a P2P application? Then just let people know what the file is and they can go get it themselves.

    P2P is quite iffy usually... some people kill their shares right after they finish. Others have slower connection speeds and for a bit torrent I would need a tracker. P2P is pretty much out since my laptop is always on the move and not always connected.
