    I stumbled across this:

    http://www.free2w.com/.

    I wonder what the catch is (besides the facts that it could come crashing down any second and possible uberspam of the supplied email address)

    I threw up a generic template for the laugh @ http://impact.free2w.com/, seems to work ok. FTP access n all o_0

    that's what my yahoo account is for ;) which btw would not seem to have spammed, yet.

    Also, the template was downloaded from www.freewebtemplates.com a good while ago, just one i had lying around on the pc...

    I went onto it, much obliged! I was searching for a good cheap service - but then again I found one flaw. I've set up a flash template on the site. You're given access to the www/ files, but it won't access the www/txt files needed for the site to run. I then went into it directly and it said "Directory Listing Denied - This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed."

    So it is one small catch. Great for those with small websites though.

    Oh, and anyone know what you can use that's free to change the code on a flash file? (apart from notepad or anything too obvious - I tried that, and didn't work, surprise surprise)
