Hello!

I have compiled a slideshow, which I want to share with some people I have met online. However, I can't find any free uploading site that will accept it's size (13.4 MB).

I have tried to e-mail it to one of the persons, and, unless I'm missing something (very likely :) ), it seems that I would have to pay to do so!

Does anyone have any advice? I thought at first that if just I sent the slidehow in the proper format, everything would be fine, but I don't have any idea what the 'proper' format even is. (I currently have it saved as a WMV file...)

Please help! Thanks in advance.

Aha... easy and FREE...

www.yousendit.com

Send it to yourself... then when it's uploaded and sent you an email,
forward that email to everyone that you want to download the file.

You can send up to 1gb (although that might take a LONG while to
upload!!!!!!)

Thank you for such a fast reply!

Unfortunatly, when I tried the site, it didn't work. I followed the directions, then waited an hour and a half while it 'sent' the item...I checked it periodicly...finally, when I checked it, the "Internet Explorer was unable to link to the Web page you requested. The page might be temporarily unavailable." page came up. Boom! Hour wasted. Sigh.

Any idea why this happened, or perhaps other ideas?

Thank you!
