   I don't presently have a way to host PDF files and am not sure where I
   got it from.  It was almost a year ago when I downloaded them off some
   obscure private website.  I don't have the full Adobe program to break
   them up into smaller pieces either.

   I'll try to see if I can relocate the source again.

   Look in to setting up a web site with Go Daddy. Real cheap
   for the huge size. You can copy mine as a crude and simple web site :)

   I can set it up for you and if you have DSL you can then
   upload them once you get a free PD FTP program for maintaining
   web sites. There are any number of people on here that can help
   set up a web site.

Just a related note to this topic -- I recently found a site which offer
free photo hosting, with unlimited storage.  The site is
www.myphotoalbum.com <http://www.myphotoalbum.com> .  I uploaded all the
photos I have of my Mustang II build as a test here:
n512mm.myphotoalbum.com <http://n512mm.myphotoalbum.com> .  It's an ok
site - they're trying to make a buck like everyone else, so it does some
annoying things every now & then.  But, I have 200 MB of photos up there
for anyone to see and I'm not paying anything - so I can live with the
exuberance to sell me pictures.

Anyway - this site will only accept graphics - no pdfs,etc, so it will
not solve this problem.  But for those wanting an idiot-proof way to put
hi-rez graphics up (up to 8mb per image) then this is a reasonable
solution.
