First of sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
I'm on holiday at the moment and I wont be going home for about 6 months and so far I have got about 5gb of photos. I would like to email these photos or send these photos home (other side of the world 15000 kilometers away). My hotmail lacks the capacity to send such large amounts of information, so I'm just wondering what would be the best way? I'd prefer internet based but if worst comes ill just have to send a few disks home.
Maybe another email provider will allow so much data to be sent? Or any other ideas would be welcomed.
Thanks
Edit: just noticed this should be in the Q+A section. But I dont think I can move it myself. Sorry.

There are a few things I can suggest to do this.
The first is to obviously copy everything onto a DVD and mail it. Next, you can try to use an online file hosting website. You can upload all your pics there, and tell someone at home to go download them for you. However, many of those sites have a limit on how much you can upload with a free account. Try like rapidshare, and such. The best possible way in my honest opinion is to get an online backup service. Yeah, it costs money, but they are pretty damn reliable. Check out Mozy. They have 50gb of space for 5.99$ a month. You can keep it or use it for a month, then cancel.
Good luck boss!

Is anyone else having problems with Paypal being slow in transferring money from a bank account? I just checked my account and it shows that money has indeed been transferred to my paypal account, however, when I log onto paypal, it shows that the money is still being processed. I made a commitment to donate money to Myn for the use of his roms on the 23rd (today) which happened to be the date paypal indicated that the funds I transferred would be available. Now it is showing the 24th and I am pissed about it. Has anyone had or is having a similar experience?
You get different transfer times with different banks. Also, we are getting into that part of the year where everything is going to be a little slower than normal. Just be patient, it will be there.

Happy Thanksgiving to you also man. I hate waiting on things myself but at least with paypal you know it will end well. Have a good one
i have no transaction problems with my paypal account. my only concern is how quick it change its rates.
Finally, my paypal account was updated and I was able to make the promised donation. Thanks to all who replied. Happy Thanksgiving.
Hi I currently reside in the USA and spotify (because of the darned record companies) has not made its way over here yet. I heard that if someone invites your or someone based in the UK or other countries where its supported signs you up you can use the service. So being that the community here on XDA is full of surprisingly generous people I thought I would give it a whack and ask to see if anyone could help me I am willing to donate via paypal if someone truly can help! THANK YOU FOR ALL REPLIES
I tried all sorts of proxy methods already and it seems as though they blocked this method....

You need to have a Premium account to be able to stream to your phone, that costs £10 a month.

well thats fine I would like to get a free trial though to start then go from there
I'm on it I'll just fill out some random name and stuff. You can change it yourself later.
Btw, i need your email. PM it to me
I am sorry, but it won't work. Maybe it'll work at first, but the free account only allows you to listen outside the allowed countries within 14 days, after that you won't be able to listen any more. And to pay for the service you need to be in an allowed country, otherwise you won't be able to pay
Yeah, you'll just have two weeks, but that's two weeks of sweet listening
So, anyone know one that works, and have first hand experience with it being reliable?
I don't mind having to pay a recurring fee for a service if necessary, the need arises for a work issue - anyone know of one that works?
Ive used Visual Voicemail Plus, its free for 30 days. See if you like it works for me
Thanks guys, i'll give these both a whirl.
A lot of the fax apps have problems with not actually sending, or the fax machine never receives it.
This will be for my time-sheets at work, so my pay is directly affected by the fax not making it in on time, and 24 hours can mean my pay gets tied up for several paychecks.
Any issues with non-received faxes that you know of?
Okay, update:
Got a trial account with www.myfax.com
After checking out my options and spending some time reading up on it this morning, seemed like the best move. I appreciate the two posters above giving me something to chew on that led to this.
Tried them out, sent faxes from my email to a couple local copy shops. All printed in a timely fashion, so seems like it's pretty decent. I'll keep using my free trial to put it to the test, but if it keeps working this well i'll be switching to a paid subscription probably before the trial is over.
The minimum plan they offer on a yearly basis will save me a little more then half the money I spend on sending faxes a year, so that's pretty awesome.
Now the hunt is on for a good scanner app to get the document into the phone and fax ready.
I've been tinkering with Scan-to-PDF that I bought a while ago in the google market, but it's just not up to snuff for this task. I'm looking for something that'll do full page scans and not make it look like a picture from a phone when it prints out on the fax machine I send it to.
To that end, Droid Scan Pro PDF looks like the most promising candidate for an app to scan into PDF format, i'll pick it up later in the week or early next ... whenever I dump another gift card into the app market.
Meantime, if anyone knows anything about that app, good bad or indifferent, i'd love to hear it.
Camscanner is an amazing pdf creator. Free in the market.

Camscanner is pretty cool, but haven't had the chance to play with it much - had a lot on my plate recently.
I also got the app I mentioned in my last post, but haven't had the chance to use it yet.
Sometime in the next week i'll post a review of how they work out. My next scheduled shift is on the 28th, so sometime not long after that i'll have to fax a time card in.
Alright, ive currently started using dropbox and love it. i am a pro member. i want to get my referrals up, so once my referral link (http://db.tt/Z2YieAMt) gets at the max 16gb (32 people) then i will take those 32 emails that said i invited write each on a piece of paper, and pick one randomly. I will do it by any means that is comfortable with me. Say teamviewer my pc and do it from there so i dont see pass or anything. Or say a middle man will be involved. Heck i dont know because im not going to rip anyone off. So if you want to be in the drawing please use the inviter link . The day its full i will contact the winner after ive chosen with how they want to do it.
ps i will be paying through paypal, and it will be the 50gb account for 1 month non recurring! thank you!
Please us this thread for all Dropbox stuff.
Hey, today I received invite to Bitacasa beta. It is supposed to be infinite cloud storage (there are some videos on yt explaining it from devs). So I am wondering, is anyone using it? Your opinions about it?
and lastly...if anyone wants, I can post referal invite link. Although I am not sure if I am allowed to
I would like to try it out. If u can do referals ill take one.
Sent from the phone everyone has forgotten about!
It seems I cannot post links as new member. So anyone who wants beta, just PM me your email address
It's gonna suck when the beta ends, but I think I would be willing to spend 10 bucks a month for unlimited cloud storage. That's amazing, and hell I would be spending huge more amounts of money for just 500 gigs, now I have unlimited. Unlimited memory.
