As you no doubt have guessed, I am insane. The reason for this is simple: I make games, damn fine ones if I do say so myself. But don't just take my word for it, download them yourself. Or at least that is what I would like to be able to say. You see I've got not one, not two, but three websites (including tripod, yahoo and downloadz) but not one will host my games. Iether they don't accept files larger than 3kb or they only allow pictures and HTML or something equally lame. I mean damn! What the hell is an inexperienced web designer supposed to do? I only started making these lame sites to get games on the Daily Click, and with three sites I can't even do that. Fire's already hosting one of my games but I can't keep asking him to host 'em all. Someone must have the answer... Please... help.. me...

You could try freewebs, but the downloads are painfully slow.

Often your ISP gives you free webspace which is much better than any free host.

 
99 percent chance that the above post is 100 percent correct.

If your game is under 10 megs, I can hook you up as a temporary solution until you find something better. My site has a monthly bandwidth limit of 4GB, and I'm barely using it right now. Send it to over AOL Instant Messenger sometime (I will probably be on sometime tonight)-- My screen-name is RampantMjolnir.

I'd certainly recommend Steve "Neo" Harris's hosting, as advertised further up.

Go to:

There is only one problem - no (.zip), but...this is how I overcame this problem. I change all the .zip to .(zip) and told the people that when downloading my game remove the brackets. Have a look:

Thanks everybody! Sorry about the random thread name Shadow, but it accurately expressed my feelings at the time. I'm gonna start trying these things, hopefully I'll be able to put some hip games on soon...
