There's a problem, though. These sites just can't provide everything and, human nature being what it is, far too much linking has been done from sites that don't allow such linking. When you link to any site, it uses bandwidth, and that costs money; in many cases a lot of it. The owners of these sites, through no fault of their own, have been hit with unexpected bills running in some cases into the thousands of dollars, all because of this unauthorized linking. That just isn't acceptable behavior.

It's not only unacceptable, it's now completely unnecessary. A gentleman named Anthony Chu (who needs to get some kinda Nobel Prize) has created something called the "Transloader". Simply put, the Transloader downloads an image or sound to it's own server, and uploads it to your own webpage. It's priced very reasonably; it's *FREE*! It's also very simple to use.

With the Transloader, WebTV users now have no excuse, if we ever did, for stealing other people's bandwidth. We can ftp, free of charge, to our homepages and from there, if we wish, to our e-mail. It's very easy to get a free homepage, and for newbies, it's also a fine, user friendly way to learn HTML.
