Hey all,


A while back, me and my buddy posted a new way to play the wizard.  The mechanic that we generated inspired what has turned into a pretty radical adjustment of the 4E class mechanic.  I've decided that it's getting to the point where I wanna share it around and get some feedback, but before I do that, I wanted to ask y'all out there in the community if there's anyone who knows anything about uploading pdfs or other files into a post?  I originally used a sendspace link, but if there's a way to upload the files directly into a post so you can just click and view the pdf right there.


 


Let me know,


Jetzine

Scribd.com is a good PDF viewer/downloader. A little slow though.


Most people don't mind downloading though.

Box.net is another way. You upload it there and then post the link. You even get space for future articles, or what have you.

Not a bad idea.  I like Scribd.  I wouldn't mind using it, but I've seen links here before where you click on them and a pdf or file just starts downloading.  I'm not opposed to using Scribd, but if I can find something more direct, I'd like to.

So if I post the link, will it take you to box.net where you download it, or will it just start the download?

It takes you to a seperate link. No advertisments or any of that stuff, just a bare minimum page, with the download link.
