I just signed up with powweb this weekend. I plan on building a website once I learn some more about it (Know absolutely nothing now). In the mean time I would like to use the space to store small Quicktime and WAV files. I would like to be able to link to these files within other forums. I searched through these pages without much luck, but I really don't know what I am looking for. Could someone explain to me or point me in the right direction on how I go about doing this. Thanks.

Nevermind, I am an idiot. I figured it out.

I'm a newbie and an idiot too! That's exactly what I want to do. Can you enlighten me any?

Simply upload the files you want to link into your htdocs folder (using an ftp program or WebFTP) and then link to them at yourdomain.com/file.wav etc. or put the in a folder (eg. qt) in htdocs and link to them with yourdomain.com/qt/file.mov

Make sure your not distributing copyright works without permission though :)

Thank you, Fluke. I really appreciate the help and the heads-up on the copyright!
