for some reason, the upload service prevents anybody from uploading a file bigger than about 1.4 mb even though the script itself is set to allow 12mb uploads which means that those of you who have a video or mp3 which you want to share can't do it.
now there is an answer... the Gorilla Enterprises Upload Service File Splitter.
Splitting a File
first download the file splitter from the link below or my signature.
from the File menu select 'Split File...', select the file you want to break up and then click open.
you'll then be asked which folder you want to save the split files to. make your selection and click OK.
after a few moments your file will be split into chucks which can be uploaded via the service.
Joining a File
again, download the file splitter from the link below or my signature.
from the File menu select 'Join File...', select the downloaded file segments you want to join and select Open. this dialog box allows multiple selections - hold down the ctrl key and select all the file segments you want to join.
you'll then be asked where you want to save the combined file... make your selection and then click save.
after a few moments your file will be joined together in its original form.
INTERNET EXPLORER USERS
when saving a file which is named for instance sound1.mp3.0, ensure that when you save this file the extra .0 is appended on the end of the filename. you may have to rename the file once it has downloaded because internet explorer adds the extension onto the filename again.
Important
the number appended to the file is the order which they will be joined. if you rename them and get this wrong the file will be corrupt and won't save.
be aware that the upload service doesn't allow certain characters which windows does allow - before you split the files, rename them to something which you know will be accepted by the upload service (ie, no spaces etc)
that's it, enjoy! and any questions just ask!
