  • Intel,

    Cheers for the prompt response

    My ISP provider is Eclipse Internet. I have looked at the eclipse site and it would appear that only get 20MB of free space?

    My primary concern is to do with peadophils (not spelt right i know) As am posting videos and pics of our 1st born 16 week old am naturally concerned that they stay private...easiest way i suppose would be to just post cd's of the files but thought in this day and age must be a quicker way

    Family have NTL broadband and i think can only download a max of 2MB?

    Cheers

    Just a thought have you ever considered sending the files via Messenger.
  • they dont have it?

    Can you send such big files via messenger?

    But i dont think i am mistaken in that you cannot post video clips... it clearly states the types of file you can upload and i dont recall seeing any format for video

    Don't know where you got that from. They prefer you to use Photojerk for JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIF, TGA, SWF, RAR and ZIP file types, (i.e. still images) but AFAIK you can use iHud for any file type, including mpeg, mov, wmv and avi.

    Give it a try.

    :cool:

    Mmmm not too sure actually about file size as it was more of a thought.

    If you get some freespace via https://www.freespaces.com you could try uploading
    it there then send the link to the file as said before, the first thing to to is get some free websapce.
  • I used to do some business with a guy where he named a file on his website. I used to access it and download the files from it

    Can this be done with my current site, if so...how and how secure would it be?

    Cheers
