   Try the company I use (and so does Lugnet, among millions of others):
www.pair.com
   You can get a basic account for under $10, with 20 (at least) MB of
space.

The Legos you've been dreaming of...

For all my Lego web stuff I use free webspace accounts. I have two
accounts:

1. For my website :
"http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Bridge/8522/LEGO.htm"
No (admin) problems here.

2. For holding my auction pictures {1 & 2}.
This has now been suspended as I'm not allowed to:
"use your home page (or directory) as storage for remote loading
or as a door or signpost to another home page, whether inside
or beyond Yahoo GeoCities;"

I can't really argue about this, as I did agree to the terms and
conditions (T&C). The fact that I had 65 html files (for 65 auctions)
written using files I cropped, sized, uploaded and addressed is really
only my own fault. I only hope they clamp down on porn just as
strongly(?).

Back to the point. Last night I spent an hour or so checking free web
space TIC. So far I have only found one which lets me link directly to
images - www.tripod.com . Tripod's only rule appears to be that I can
not post nude pictures of my wife (My wife has agreed to this). So my
questions are these :

A. Has anybody else had these problems?
B. Is Tripod any good?
C. Are other accounts available (I do not mind paying a small amount via
credit card)?

Thanks for your help.

{1} I have web accounts at home and work but I can not use these (Home :
V Slow Uploads  - Work : I'd get sacked - which is a pity as the
connection is very very fast).
{2} I prefer an account in the US, as this is where the majority (>75%)
of the page views will be.

Thanks for your help. I'd already given up on the "free" web space providers. Some actually ask you to sign away all publishing rights on the material uploaded - not a real problem to me I must admit. I think I will go with pair, I got 30mb for (...)
