ZipThings
« on: February 01, 2009, 02:38:41 PM »
A friend of mine just made this site, it might be useful to some of you:

http://www.zipthings.com/

It lets you add some URLs, then it downloads the files, zips them together and gives you a download link. He's working on adding some more compression formats (rar, tar.gz/bz2/lzma) and possibly a premium system that bypasses the file size limits and allows you to deeplink to your files.

He also has some picture hosting at www.pixozio.net if you need any.

He needs to modify the captcha so that 5=S, 0=O, etc. (rapidshare/MU do this, making it less of a pain to guess characters)

Looks like I won't be able to get those multi-gig NASA images into a single archive :(

He's constantly working on it and changing the layout and such - apparently there's a limitation of 48mb on a file set by his server, which he hasn't yet put on the front page.
