    I need to upload something to the public

    I want to upload a project I've been working on. It's about 6.3MB zipped. It's a first person shooter engine that will hopefully turn into a small game called "Lanthanide and Actinide' by the end of senior year (could be much much sooner, but end of senior year is the latest).

    Can anyone give me web space?

    Can't you just get some free web space from Geocities or some website like that? Or, if this is really important to you, you could buy your own domain name for not too much.

    edit::Oh, and cool name for the game. It's nerdy, and I like it.

    Angelfire gives 20mb webspace for free.

    Recently, I've started noticing them called Lanthanoids and Actinoids.

    I would be glad to offer you webspace on my free domain that I have from 0catch, but there's a 1 mb file size limit. :-/ That's the case with a lot of the free sites.
    Away.

    Im trying that prohosting site right now. I'm going to post the details in the game programming forum, so I don't upset any of the mods (otherwise this will turn into a game programming thread)

    EDIT:
    okay, prohosting allows 50mb, but I can't upload a single file larger than 2MB

    He means you can run your own FTP site. And people can just download it straight off of your FTP site which is hosted under your compuers IP

    But then you have to worry about keeping the computer up for long periods of time (mine at least would scream at me, and then die a painful death every day or so)... easier to let other people deal with that, I think.
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.

    I'm assuming that the number of downloads for this wouldn't be tremendous, so if I ever get a webserver running off of my computer (there are issues with my router) I would host it for you locally too. I make no guarentees about uptime, of course, but my computer is usually on (according to SETI@Home, about 80% of the time)
    Away.
