Hotspot has taken the http upload facility down for maintainance, it should be back up and working some time soon.  Larger uploads over http are often troublesome though, so I've written a script to handle uploads via FTP, here are the details for you to put in your FTP client:

Server:   americangirlscouts.org
Port:     2121
username: Your forum username
password: Your forum password

This will allow you to upload, list and delete your own files, and they'll be available at http://americangirlscouts.org/agsuploads/YourUsername
Your forum password is not stored in any way.

Limits:
You can upload mp3, ogg, mid, png, gif, jpg, exe, rar and zip files, up to 100mb.  You should NOT use this as a general uploading service, it is mainly intended as a place where we can maintain stable links to games, but screenshots, stuff for critics lounge, and so on, are also ok. If you have problems with it PM me or post here with them, it's not been heavily tested yet (although it appears to work).

Cool, I would say something more but I kind of need a demo or completed game to upload first ^_^
When I was a little kid we had a sand box. It was a quicksand box. I was an only child... eventually.

That's because you work in a browser that is supposedly perfect, and completely ignore IE, which most people still use. I'd be willing to try and fix the layout for IE, if I was provided with the css and the layout part of the source...
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

I think you should add .7z to the supported formats, well, because I often use it to pack files.
Nice, however, I just don't have anything to upload so far.  :)

I do ish? Really? Thats why the rest of my sites work perfectly in IE? I just haven't gotten around to dummying the style sheet for IE yet.

I was joking on that one, k._.? Forgot to include smileys.

Whatever...

So was I! I was just defending my honour!

And explaining why it was, since thats what it will look like to anyone who uses the site in IE.

If you want to use 7zip the best thing for everyone is to make it self extracting (exes are supported for upload), because only a tiny minority can extract that format.

lol, I was starting to wonder what american girl scouts was all about :D Great name!
The Tween Module now supports AGS 3.6.0!

Um, I just looked into the paths and there is no songo.rar uploaded. Are you sure it was successful?

There was probably a problem with the upload, I'll try again.
Thanks.

I tried again. It was processing for a few minutes, and then just came back to THIS screen. It didn't give me the screen "YOU CAN FIND YOUR FILE HERE...", like it did when I tested a smaller file.

As it is, upload your files, here.

I tried to upload a zip file, but it killed my connection three times in a row...Any ideas?

This I don't know about, its possible I missed out an error handling message, I'll check over after work today.

This is probably due to your connection, which have you got?

Broadband.
It seems it uploaded an empty file though, because when I tried again it said file already exists but when I test-downloaded it , it was  0 kb.
