Hey, you people know the internets...

Where's a website that will host my 730MB flash animation?
Youtube doesn't seem to be working out...

/Is there any way for me to make it smaller?  I guess I could save it at a different res...eh, I'm so confused.

Sounds like you need to run the animation through some sort of compression program and create a movie file. I don't know of any such programs offhand but I'm sure they're out there.

Anyway, there are a couple of options.

-Split up the file into several pieces and upload to a place like Megaupload or Sendspace. Free but a pain in the butt on both ends.
-Buy some server space. I use Dreamhost, which isn't perfect but is just fine for a $10/mth deal. I get unlimited space, so I can upload whatever I want. T'is quite nice.

Good luck!
