How to send large files

We all share our photos, videos, songs movies etc. And the most common form of sharing it is sending via email in the form of attachments. However most of the email clients we use allows a maximum of upto 10mb only (only Google mail- Gmail gives more than it- 20mb). That roughly translates to around 4-8 images. And no event consists of only 4-8 images. So how do you send it?

1)Well the most easy way is to compress it with WinZip, WinRar, 7Zip or something like that which would give you the option to fit in 1 more photo. If you are lucky, that is.

2)You could resize the images using the Windows inbuilt feature. Or you could use an image resizer.

3)The last and the best option is to upload the whole folder in many of the free file sharing sites like rapidshare. Of them the best ones are put in order.

1) Adrive.com (50GB free storage with other premium plans, excellent download speeds, sign-up required.)

2) Box.net (1GB free storage, Exellent site design, Good Download speed, sign-up required.)

3) Mediafire (Unlimited storage, excellent download, excellent speed, sign-up required)

4) Windows live spaces (5GB free, good speed download, sign-up required)

5) Filemail (2GB free, no sign-up required, files deleted after 3 days)
