Hey everyone.... I see a lot of posts where people want to post pictures, but don't have a good place to upload them to...<br /><br />I've got a server here with a few gigs of free space... if anyone wants a place to post pictures, send me an email, I'll set you up with a username and pasword so you can ftp in and upload what you want.<br /><br />cheers<br /><br />oh.. ndemge@primary.net

Re: Free picture hosting for Iboats Members

mdemge, that's a fantastic thing you're doing!<br />Ever since I've been hanging-around iboats, I've been looking for them to open a pic host, so we could post a pic of the thingamabob on the framisatat,on the merccroid outbuzzer.<br />or some such...<br />But to no avail. The problems have been in policing it , I think. But this is a great thing you're doing. I now have a web host, but wish you were around about 6 months ago.<br />Thanks for sponsoring this space. You are a true gentleman.

Re: Free picture hosting for Iboats Members

If anyone knows how to make design a webpage where users can upload pics from a website and not have to login via ftp... let me know.. <br /><br />for now I have a general logon made...<br /> ftp://66.136.189.195 <br /><br />username iboats<br />password iboats<br /><br />to view pictures:<br /> http://66.136.189.195/iboats/directoryname/picturename.jpg <br /><br />..I'd prefer that everyone create a directory with your iboats username, and upload pictures there to keep things orgonized.<br /><br />Everyone has Write access, but nobody can delete or change pictures.... <br /><br />if you want your own login... just email me.

...Mr Fitz...<br /><br />Assuming you login to upload your pictures,<br />you will have made a directory and put your picture there...<br /><br />so... if YOU were to put some pictures up.. you'd made a directory called "mrfitz" ...and if your pictures was "boat.jpg"...<br /><br />you would make your link to:<br /><br /> http://66.136.189.195/iboats/mrfitz/boat.jpg

Re: Free picture hosting for Iboats Members

ndemge...I am not familuar with FTP but I try to log on with the iboats and it appears that it goes there but tells me it has timmed out. Then I tried to create a new folder but it also gave ma a simular message. Am I doing it wrong or are my setting messed up on my end. All i see is the ftp address in the upper left of the window. Also how do you go about uploading photos or is it self explanatory if I get in.<br /><br />EDITED: I retried and this is the error I get. Windows cannot acess this folder. Make sure you typed the file name correctly and that you have permission to acess the folder. Details the operation timed out

Re: Free picture hosting for Iboats Members

you should be able to just go to:<br /><br />ftp://66.136.189.195<br /><br />if it does not ask for you to login, simply right click the screen, and select "login as".. then enter iboats as username and password<br /><br />you can then right click to make a directory.<br /><br />just drag and drop your pictures into the window and it will upload them.<br /><br />if you'd like to have an ftp program, download.com has several available cuteftp, and ftpx are 2 good ones. .. but for this, internet explorer will be just as good.<br /><br />---edit--- I had the ip wrong.. correct now
