uploading to web site

[Pirateking]

This might belong in Marketing/Publicity, but here it goes. Is there a way to bypass the upload feature on a commercial web-site provider (Geocities) in order to put an MP3 on my web page? Supposedly they can upload up to 5 megs at a time (sorry if my computer terminalogy is wrong) and my MP3 is only 4.7 megs, but when I try to upload it, it works for a really long time (5-10 minutes), with data being transferred, before it eventually gives up and gives me an error message. What can I do?

Pirateking, I had that problem too. Why dont you put your tune's on a free site like Waldo's www.nowhereradio.com then simply put a link on your site to the other site? It's basically gonna work the same way I think.

If you get space from a commercial website provider (you can probably get ~100 MEGS for ~$20 a month), they should let you FTP (File Transfer Protocol) your stuff up. You can use a GUI (WS-FTP32 is a good one) or use the old DOS command line program (if you know Unix!), this is much more efficient than HTTP for large files (correct me if I'm wrong!)
Good luck!
