Help in sending loads of files please!

Hi

I have about 300 photos to send to my brother and was going to use megaupload, but it only seems to want to send 1 file at a time (unless I join).

Can anyone help me with decent websites that I can send lots of files quickly please?

    I second picasa - just click on each pic you want to email and it shrinks them down to an email friendly size for sending. If he wants to print them out, upload them to the Picasa albums in full resolution and he can download the album at his end.

    Picasa is very easy to use, I'm a non techie and it's a handy prog !

    Why not zip them all into one large file. WinXP has an inbuilt basic zip and unzip?

    Photobucket will allow you to create an album and upload as many files as you want to it. If he also opens up a photobucket account, he can copy them straight to that without having to download the lot.

    Remember though that if you've 300 photos at 1MB each, it'll take an absolute age to upload them all at around 300Kb/s.

    It's probably a lot less hassle to stick them on a CDR and pop it in the post.

    The easiest way is probably to burn to CD or DVD, and then post it. Uploading that many photos may take quite a long time, and hit your download limits...
