What, and your userContent.css does hide everything?

If you're using a subscription, report what doesn't get blocked. If not, 
adjust your filters.

if you know how to find crap things on sites, then you 
CAN elimiate them.  For example, for me, on aol.com, 
all I've got is the mail icon, which takes me to the 
screenname page, and all I've got there is the login 
box.  On both pages I've trashed everything else.  Now, 
both of those pages takes a second or two to load, 
instead of anywhere from 5 to 90 seconds.

It doesn't sound like you can **deep-link** to an image
but, instead people have to go to a **page**.
That sucks.


Jeff,
I am not parking an image, but a file to download.
Of all the sites I viewed and tested, bigfilez.com 
(previously I missed-spelled that) is the easiest site to 
operate for a recipient. Yes, it would be nice to go to a 
link and immediately and automatically start a download, 
but, the file hosting sites are free (mostly) public sites 
that sustain themselves with ads. Until I find a for-pay 
file hosting site that provides the automatic experience, or 
I start my own domain web site, I think the people I send to 
bigfilez.com will tolerate and download what I want them to 
retrieve with little irritation and inconvenience.

rapidshare.com is one of the first places to look,
otherwise, you might want to look at this site:

http://www.filehoster.info/filehoster

it lists tons of possible places.  I got that from
Barry, another poster.  A big thanks goes to him for that.

if you know how to use the userContent.css file, or the 
Stylish extension, you can eliminate all the 
advertising. Thats what I've done to many sites.

Slightly off subject: Question about file posting sites

2009-04-08 Thread HeavyDuty

Anybody know of an internet file posting site?
I can use imageshack.com to post and share out an image 
file, but I am wondering about a place to upload to and then 
place a link in an e-mail where others can download a file.
