    Default File Uploading on Austech

    As most people are aware, the site Austech uses to upload our files to () has been closed down.

    In future, should you need to upload a file you can still upload a file in exactly the same way as you used to. We are in the process of changing all our Megaupload file boxes to Mediafire.

    An even better feature of this service is that after you download a file, you click on the "filebox" link on the top forum toolbar. There you will find ALL files uploaded for you to browse and download. Find the file you just uploaded and post the url for others. (To do this, hover over the file with your curser and some icoons appear. The first one has a "share" link in it that gives you the file url.

    I had a play with it and although i didn't go all the way what i did find that is was if anything a lot easier. I like the drag and drop bit.

    As above TB. After using it the first time, you are better off bookmarking the URL. Then you can go there anytime and see what files people have uploaded and download what you need if necessary

    Thanks hoe

    If hover your cursor over the file you want, on the right hand side you will see some icons appear. The round one ( actions menu ) contains a link called "share" which when clicked on shows the file url which can then be posted instead of the folder url if required.

    I just tested it by editing your link in the sat thread

    So Sanity was the pricing the same as the link I posted in the Megaupload thread, or do they do better deals when linked to websites ?

    We had to use a reseller to pay due to issues with their site. Not sure I saw the price in your post ? I think I just saw Mediafire and did a google.

    Yes the link had pricing in it, but it never had any details on whether they did better pricing for the more that gets uploaded/downloaded.


    On that listed site is that going to show the files listed in the premium section as well or does it give you the ability to have a hidden folder for premium section files.


    If not maybe it might be a good idea for anyone posting in the premium section to RAR and password the files before uploading ?



    Cheers

    I think most sites have dropped off that idea due to abuse/spamming. Megaupload did about a year ago. You buy bandwidth if you run out of the allowed amount.

    There is just the one folder for the meantime.

    Yep , as always if you only want a select few to see something you can password it.

    I am also having the same issue with IE9, works fine with Firefox and Chrome. The folder link is now on the top forum toolbar, far left for easy access for everyone.
