...but I understand you need either a freeola dialup or freeola broadband account to be able to upload to it. Since I have NTL cable there is no possibility of me being able to use either - is there a way that I can upload to freeola from outside the SR network? Can it be done?

We do have one Anerican working for us though, but don't hold that against him.

We have almost got him civilised, he even drinks tea now.

Propper hot tea, with milk and sugar. Not cold and in a glass with ice and lemon.

Joke officially ruined, even if it wasn't funny in the first place...

The point is it lacks convenience - I often want to throw a picture up here or a sound file up there, and I don't want to spend more than 5 seconds doing it. I would use freeola, but I have a friend who owns a server and access to an account on it.

And I'm not in any way bitter that the first time I found out about this upload restriction I was unable to utilise a domain I bought for someones birthday, no sir..

You couldn't have put it any better.

People would rather pay £50-£150 a year to host their domain somewhere they can upload to from anywhere and then upload to once every 6 months for a total of 20 mins of phone call a year. That would have cost you a potential sum of 20p

Come on people, do the math....

I hate to sound like a salesman for freeola, but it is still much cheaper to buy at getdotted and upload at weekends at around 1p per minute than to buy at somewhere else for some extortional amount every month.

> How much do you charge for hosting :p

hosting is free you are only charged for connecting to freeola.

to save money I suggest you have a freeola conection as well as your current connection.

there is an of peak rate which I think is about 1p per minute but i'm not sure if that's right.
I'm not quite sure what the peak rate is.

but I can't dial up to freeola as i'm using a network server at college :(

Look at the cost of proffecional hosting with the amount of services that Freeola offer.

Even if you have to get a cheep modem to upload, it is still by far the cheeper option.
