www.freehostia.com is alright, only some issues with server downtime.
And holy fuck, FileFront's going down! What a shame, t'was a lovely file host. :<

We regret to inform you that due to the current economic conditions we are forced to indefinitely suspend the FileFront site operations on March 30, 2009.Crysis affects everything, I guess.

Heh, didn't realize your last post was a link until it was too late.
Well that's a damn shame. Farewell FileFront, you will be missed.
Anyway, on topic: If you don't want to register, Mega Upload might be the way to go. But seeing a free 250 megs + 6 gigs of bandwidth a month with Freehostia looks tempting.

I'm about to register a domain... is any company better than another for this? do any sites that anyone knows of give hosting when you register a domain?

Seems like there were a lot of old HL mods out there I could only find on Filefront. Sucks.

I told you guys Filefront was going down in the Shoutbox, were you not there?
I'm in the same boat as CT, just joined, and now it's going down...

...it's possible it IS an April fool's joke. I never thought of that. The date is a little...coincidental.

I dunno, i haven't been able to upload files all night, but who knows? Hopefully, it is a joke! = )
Hey what about fileplanet? Has anyone here ever used it? Oh wait, don't you have to login everytime you want to download from there?...meh.
Also btw, i can't figure out how to upload to x10hosting... do new users have to wait a period of time before they can start uploading, or what? (I don't see any dialogs or menus for uploading content, and i tried FTPing, but no workie.

Good. TWHL disapearing for more than a few hours would kill me.
