Unfortunately, we’re not Google, and we can’t offer you 6 GB on Gmail and 1 GB on your Blogger uploads.
Unfortunately, we’re not WordPress.com either (and we love them very much except for the huge bloated number of users), and you don’t get 3 GB for uploads.
But if you’re lucky, you don’t get the default 25 MB of space either. I am fully capable of upgrading the storage space allocated to each blog. Smash.Weblog — our newest high-volume site — has been given 100 MB. It’s not a lot, but it’s certainly enough for the amount of pictures that the usual text-based blogger needs.
You should note the following restrictions:
- 25 MB storage space for the new blog; this can be increased to 1024 MB
- 1500 KB maximum size per file
- These file types are not permitted: mp3 mov avi wmv midi mid rar zip 7z exe mp4
- Executable files
- Archives
- Multimedia files other than .swf (Flash)
- These file types are permitted: jpg jpeg png gif bmp doc ppt xls docx pptx xlsx pdf swf (we’re willing to add more if you comment)
If you want to be sharing files (compliant with our Terms of Service, of course, which does not allow warez), software, or music, you might want to take a look at some of the following free file hosts:
While others are specialized to hosting pictures:
In the meantime, keep in mind that you are bound by the Terms of Service.
