Upload Sites

Here is a list of sites than can be used to host mods with some information on each. Sites are listed in descending order of possible hosted file size.

NB: Although these sites have been suggested by individual TWC members no guarantee is given that any of them will perform as desired! It would be advisable to test any you are proposing to use with a test upload and download of a small file before attempting large uploads or releasing link to public! As always if using any internet facility you should make sure your computer is protected with up-to-date anti-virus software etc....
