Zip or Rar files are your friends.

750 eh? Totally not suspicious.

EDIT: Your OP is mine.

I have about 759 (but who is counting) files I need uploaded to the net within the next 3 hours, anyone have a good idea of how to upload those? I don't see myself uploading them 15 at a time (which is the limit on my web page now)

help?

I need them uploaded separately.....so I can't just zip it.
You might need some 'splainin' then.

And I recommend Filzip or Winrar (free shareware, it just starts bothering you after the no-bother timer runs out). I use both.

You do not have ftp or shell access on your webhost ?

I'm guessing your using Geocities, Angelfire or one of those free sites?


Well. From my experience, some of those free sites do allow FTPing. I'd check into if the one your with allows it or not and if so, to find the FTP information for your account. Sometime's it's something really off the wall, and sometimes it's something like "ftp.angelfire.com" with your accoutn name and password as the FTP account name and password.


But yeah. I'd double check with your web site provider about that.

Yeah, need to know who you are uploading it to and why on earth you need the files separate.

I am guessing pictures and a gallery that does not support .zip uploading...

Imageshack is the best image host I have seen and it has zip uploading (it used to have a standalone tool that would upload stuff for you, bastards got rid of it or hid it).

I had to switch over to Windows to do it.....freaking Microsuck and it's sometimes useful crap.

What on earth can ms offer in this area that another OS - which I suppose supports shellscripting - can not do better ?

Use archive manager to put them into a .tar file. You might want to compress it with bz2 afterwards. (ie .tar.bz2 the files!)
