I have free shaw webspace and i want to be able to host my own pics?

how is the easiest way to do this? no i dont really know what im doing but im not a complete fool

upload your pictures to your shaw website, and then link it that way.. you need either an ftp program, or you can just upload them via Internet Explorer.

Just search for WS FTP on the net and download and install it on your computer.

Then follow the instructions on the Shaw link I gave you.

You gotta go online and activate your webspace or else you can't do it.

i need to know how to have the files to upload.... i made them in some stupid html program... then what

[roopi]

ok first answer a few questions and i'll try and walk you through this.

1. Do you have WS FTP installed?

2. Are you able to connect with WS FTP to your Shaw account?


If you are this far the rest is a piece of cake. If you aren't this far then let me know. If you have MSN add me [email protected]

[Caretaker]

yes that simple.

I have shaw as well.
Here are instructions on how to upload onto your account.
Type in
1) ftp.shaw.ca in your browser.
2) Enter your account name and password (it's the same as your email address from shaw). If you don't have that set up, that would be the first step.
3) Then what you do is drag the picture you want into the browser (so it's as simple as click and drag).
4) Then the address to your picture is
http://members.shaw.ca/yourusername/filepicturename.jpg (or whatever extention your picture file uses - .JPG .GIF .gif etc)
Hope that helps!
