Need a place to park the BUSH CHEATED files for download, I got booted
off 50megs.com and tripod for violating TOS. Freepers have been snitching.

I have the HTML code for the page that the files are linked to and the files. I would prefer not to have to use a free web hosting sevice as I will just get booted again. PM me if you can help.

4. Not that much, the TIFs are of course bigger than the PDFs
I can probably get rid of the TIF option, I imagine most people download the PDFs.

6. They never tell you, your page just gets pulled and they mention TOS
I imagine this is considered profane...




As is this:

3. The high res files for download are PDFs and TIFs, so people can print
the files like BUSH CHEATED and then take them to Kinkos to photocopy.

It is not hard to violate TOS on the free sites. They could claim BUSH CHEATED is libel and that George W. Bush is a punk ass bitch is profane. I have no doubt that freepers are snitching as tripod and 50megs.com would not know what was on my site unless someine complained.

I just need someone who has some web space and I can email or ftp the files. I have the HTML code also.

7. I can help (a little)
I can't host your site, but if you need to mirror your downloads (tiffs for example) I could do that if the are not too huge.

PM me if you're interested.

8. I really need to find a permanent place to park the files and host the
page. Getting pulled with no warning until someone on DU posts that my link doesn't work and then I have to recreate and reupload all those files every time it happens. Now is when DUers shouyld be downloading and disseminating BUSH CHEATED.

11. The first time it happened I just viewed the source of the Google cache
version, and copied and pasted it. I now have it on my HD. It's really no biggy as I handcode HTML, but no point in typing when you don't have to.

10. I have signed up for a couple free web site hosting spots just to have
them reject the PDFs.

12. A Domain Name and Web Hosting costs about $0.35 a day
And, if you offer the images as photo stock, selling one-tme rights to just one image a year for $150 or more produces a profit!
