Thanks in advance.

The 2 that I know of, and they are realated, are anglefire and Tripod. I use tripod myself. I think it uses FTP, though I do not. The biggest file I have transfered is about 100k, so its not an issue.

On search, found this, Link to for info on 10 free ones.

Finding free is NOT the issue here. Finding ones that seem to offer reasonable space & features without excessive intrusion is.

If other than free, check with chips, I think he said something about where he got his for around $6.95 a month.

update - Chips said in his edit thread

How did i put my site online? I pay out each month (well, I paid a year in advance) to the best deal by FAR on the net that i found (which is also reliable - ie the provider won't fold).

I pay around $6.95 a month for 2 gig of storage, 60gig bandwidth, unlimited email and all the other stuff that goes with it (database support etc). The company is Globat, and i Regularly rave about them whenever someone asks me for a recommendation. By far and wide the best deal i could find. If you pay the whole year in advance, its cheaper, you get the URL name free, and free everything else (*basically one payment made). If you pay by month, it costs more, and you may have to pay for the site name too. If you pay Bianually, its about $6.50 a month - and seeing as that was just a pack of fags, or 2 pints of beer per month (nothing really), I was more than happy to pay out. Best money i ever spent, as fiddling with it keeps me going when terminally bored. It has great live support chat, as well as phone support as well. However, as always, shop around, take a peek etc.
