Hey everybody,
I have known about methods for sending large files, but they were usually pretty technical. Now there is one that is super easy. Nothing is foolproof, but they have done a pretty good job to make this as simple as possible.
When you need to send large batches of photos, or any type of files really, then I suggest you get an XDrive account from http://www.xdrive.com
XDrive gives you 5GB of online storage for free. That is enough for about 7 CDs worth of data, or a little more than one DVD. That is plenty for most things, or you can pay for more storage.
Once you have an account, and have uploaded the files you want to share, you can send a link to another person to go download them. So it is a great way to share files. You do not need to mail a CD, and you do not need to do all that much really.
If you have an AOL Screenname, then you can just use the one you have. Otherwise, you can sign up and get one for free.
Head over to http://www.xdrive.com and follow the instructions.
Now when you have photos to send to the Carpenter-Zimmerman.org website, you can just send me an invitation to the XDrive folder where they are stored and I will go download them.
Easy as pie. Well, almost. But still pretty easy.
