The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

A place for uploading files

Howdy gang,

I need a file hosting site were I can upload files and share them for downloads in best possible way. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure about that.
I don't think hosting it there would give me the power to controll it myself?

You're always at the mercy of whoever you choose to host the file unless you run your own server.

http://www.yousendit.com (link expires after ten days I think)
http://www.megaupload.com
http://www.driveway.com

Try these.  Uploads max out at about 35kbs.

Hm, not quite what I'm looking for. I need to upload folders containing files.
I used to have an old Diino account, but I hated it so much that I kicked it out of my PC.

Put the folders in a .zip or .rar archive and it will upload fine.

If you need to organize files that you upload, I use
4Shared for my LBT songs. :)  It's awesome for that. :)
