Hi! Dear internet friend,
According to the present situation, a lot of file storage services are available for us. So it is better for us to store our files online free besides in our hard-disk & CD.


  1. http://www.xdrive.com/ : It provides us 5 GB free file storage space. No limit for file size & band-width. We have to create free account and download the software "Xdrive Desktop Lite" on Home page. Then we can upload files easily.
  2. http://mozy.com/home : It provides 2 GB free file storage space by choosing the option 'Mozy Home Free'. No limits for file size & band-width.
  3. http://box.net/ : It provides 1 GB free file storage space.
  4. http://esnips.com/ : It provides 5 GB free file storage space.
  5. http://mediamax.com/ : It provides 25 GB online file storage space. But this service has some limits regarding band-width. Although we upload large files, we can download files upto 10 MB only for every time. If we want more, we are asked to upgrade for premium account. So remember it and it may not be suitable for who upload large files.

Do you have own domain? Although you have no sufficient skills, you can design it attractive by using the software "flash website design pro".
You can create animated flash websites, intros, banners, flash advertisements very easily. You can download it below.

The photos from digital camera or saved photos from the websites are a lot with you?, to view them easily as slide show and to get effects like crops, lens, waves, morphs, resize, color adjustments etc., "Fast Stone Image Viewer" software works well.
It supports almost all file formats like BMP, JPEG. Even Red Eye Removal, Batch conversion facilities are also available here.
