Ideas for FREE hosting?

MindBug · Post by **MindBug** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 4:22 pm

Hey, all. I would like to host some videos that I made awhile back, but due to certain parts I feel they may not meet the standards for hosting on the a-m-v.org server. They are in no way inappropriate but I would rather not take my chances with getting banned from being able to upload. If anyone has some webspace and would be willing to host them on their site [50 MB or less] or any good ideas on how to get some free webhosting I would appreciate it, thanks.

Heh, I'm not sure this is the right place to ask, but I don't know where is, so...if you're willing to compress them a *lot* you can put them up on free websites. It's sad, but I've been known to put crap (under 5mb) wmvs of my vids on my geocities group, just so people can look at them and know if they want to take the time to download the official version. It isn't a permanent solution, but at least you can share the vid - and get Phade to download the small version - that would be enough for him to tell you if it violates the rules or not. He *does* check vids, if you ask him. ^_^ I know that doesn't really help, but it's an idea, and saves time for file transfers via aim or whatever you use.

Angelfire gives you 20MB for free, so you could try compressing a vid with DivX and sticking it there.
Also, check to see what your ISP offers. That could be another 10-15MB.

thanks for the idea, I'm using it as a temporary solution. Please check AMV annoucements for the link to my video:

Thanks again for the advice all... I will update this post if I come up with a more permanent hosting solution.
