Thanks for the response Peter. I have generally avoided .Mac from its onset. It seemed to me it was sold primarily for backup and some file sharing. I have been able to use other tools to get the job done. I have several external hard drives I use for backup. I resize pictures for email, and I use Quicktime Pro to resize video clips for family emails. So I haven't looked into .Mac until I just read your post. I gather this would allow me to upload a large file like this and create a link others could use to view, and they don't have to be on a Mac or have their own .Mac account. In their support under .Mac they mention groups as one of the features. Here's what I actually am doing, so you can see why I am interested now. I run an NFL football pool for about 50 people. I actually have an adult pool with 35 and a Kids Pool with 15 kids. I am a Pediatrician in San Jose, so everyone in the pools knows me, some are nearby and some are around the country. I asked everyone to send me pictures and biographies so I could put a presentation together about all our participants, which I did with Powerpoint. It was really quite fun and everyone got a big kick out of it. Now I'm thinking that I might be able to set up a group site using .Mac for my football pool. In case anyone is worried, we are not talking about a big money operation here. The kids win a Jamba Juice if they win the weekly pool. Any more thoughts would be appreciated. Meanwhile I tried saving the Powerpoint as a PDF, that went from 7.8 megabytes to 32 megabytes. I don't really want to spend $150 for Acrobat Pro to shrink the original down.
