This is a step-by-step tutorial on how to upload content to the site with zip files, my preferred method. I prefer zip files because, in my opinion, it's faster and easier than RAR files. If you don't have a zip program, you can download How To Upload Content With Zip Files 7ziplogo_zpscfa8b23e for free. Download the one for your Operating System; just the exe. file for 32 or 64 bit whichever you have.  7Zip is a good little program and it also opens RAR files. Next, you need to make an account on a cloud storage site such as MediaFire, 4Shared, JustCloud, ADrive, SkyDrive, Box, Symform, etc.. I'm using MediaFire for this tutorial, but it's the same concept for the other sites as well. If you have both of the above, you're ready for the tutorial.



1. With the file you want to upload on your desktop, right-click the file and select 'Send to> Compressed (zipped) file'.

The compressed folder (file) will now be on your desktop ready to upload.

2. Go to your cloud storage account and select the 'upload' tab. Like I mentioned above, the concept is pretty much the same on other sites.

Select the file on from your desktop, select 'open', and then select 'begin upload'.

Hope this tutorial makes it a little easier for those who aren't sure about how they should upload content. If you do prefer RAR files, or to upload pics from Photobucket or another photo hosting site, Neff has explained how to do this here.  Smile
