Once your pictures are on your computer, it is time to transfer them to a free file hosting site. You will want to register for an account by clicking REGISTER on the top menu bar. Once you've finsihed the registration process an activation email will be sent to you (check your SPAM folder if you don't see it in your Inbox). Click the link and your account will be activated and now you can login and use your account.

Once you are logged in, you will need to upload your files by clicking UPLOAD from the top menu bar. Next, click Browse and select your file and then click Browse again to select additional files if necessary. Once you've finished selecting the files, click upload.

After uploading your files you are taken to the My Files page where you can resize and rename your files in one easy step. It's good to rename your files something descriptive that you'll remember.

Type the new filename in the Rename box. Next, change the leftmost box on Resize to 640 for 640x480 (or to 800 for 800x600) pixels and leave the "Maintain Aspect Ratio" box checked. Save the changes by clicking Update File. Repeat for any remaining files you want to edit.
