Using an FTP Client (such as http://www.smartftp.com) upload your file to the ftp server Jimmy e-mailed you. Then when you submit the game to acoders, just give them the URL on the submission form.

This sig has been dullified!

Or you could use http://www.dbspot.com/net2ftp/
I think the bigest file you can upload is 50Mb, if your game is bigger you will have to use a proper ftp client. I use filezilla.

can i scream

the size limit for the compo is 15megs so i don't have to worry about being over 50megs

i'll try uploading a demo to test it...(now i need to convert what i have so far into a demo )

Go to http://www.dbspot.com/net2ftp

Input the details that i hope Jimmy sent you. Then login. Go to the upload button (to the left below the files section). Then when the new page comes up, browse for the file on your hard drive, press ok and then click the green tick. Whe the new page loads the file has uploaded (this may take a while)

The file will now be uploaded. Ta-dum
