I'd make a nice PUZZLE, but...
Don't laugh, please...

I don't know how to upload that to The Game Creators's ftp..
kkkk
If someone doesn't wanna kill me due this question, then try to answer that ='|
I'd try entering the ftp (ftp.thegamecreators.com ) but, when I double-click "Incoming", it says for me something like:

Error at opening the FTP server. Check if you're allowed to access this folder..
Details:
200 Type okay
200 PORT command successful.
553 Permission denied


=/

Step-by-step.. Please =DDD

Quote: "FTP to: ftp.thegamecreators.com and place your zip file into the incoming directory. You can login as "anonymous" with your email address as the password. Please note that you CANNOT see any files in this directory (including your own) due to write permissions, this is normal. You cannot upload two files with the same name, so if you need to upload your game again put something like "_v2" on the end of the filename. Make sure your archive has a text file that at the very least has your name and email address included in it - otherwise we'll loose track of who submitted what."


What FTP program are you using?

Hmmm, Not sure if you drag and drop, but then again I never tried it through the browser. I just assumed you were using an ftp program like "cute Ftp". It's free. You would get an error if you tried to open the incoming folder because I'm guessing that the browser would try to display the contents, which the anonymous login does not have permission to do.

Windows XP has ftp from the command line. It's not that hard to use

just open the command prompt (start->All programs->accessories command prompt

1. type "FTP"
2. type "O" to open ftp connection
you will get a "to:" prompt
3. type "ftp.thegamecreators.com"
you will get a prompt to enter username
4. type "anonymous"
you will get a prompt to enter password
5. type (your email address)
6. type "ls" to see the directory
7. type "cd incoming" to change to the incoming directory
8. type "put yourfile.zip"
9. type quit to exit ftp

Note you can also use the send command instead of put.
Send filename.zip

Be sure to the path of the local file
send c:yourfile.zip

You won't be able to ls in the incoming folder as stated above.

Now perhaps I'm just and old schooler, it's quite possible that you can just drag and drop in your browser. I just always use an FTP client and I like command line tools.
