pmwww | | Free Online Services (4th Nov 09 at 1:06am UTC) | | I was thinking about this at work, while sifting through a raft of anchor points for a clients website (oh, how fun  )
What free services do you use and recommend online? They can be anything, ranging from image editors, file/image hosting, games etc. If its free and you've found a practical use for it, then list it! 
If there's enough and i have enough time, i might compile them all into one big list. | |

pmwwwgtalkvForum | | Re: Free Online Services (4th Nov 09 at 2:59pm UTC) | | There's this forum software I use quite a bit. Completely free and it has some great features.....
A little more seriously though, I highly recommend the GIMP image editor. I use it for a lot of my simple image editing tasks.
Another piece of a free software I use a lot is Notepad 2. I used to use a good, free, FTP client too but since that's no longer free they no longer get a mention here | |

I forgot about GIMP.

Notepad 2? What is that, just an upgraded Notepad? | |

pmwwwgtalkvForum | | Re: Free Online Services (5th Nov 09 at 9:25am UTC) | | Yeah, it's like Notepad but with extras such as code highlighting, brace matching, indentation guides etc. Really useful for anyone who works with a lot of code but doesn't want the overhead associated with most editors.

pmwwwgtalkvForum | | Re: Free Online Services (15th Nov 09 at 10:16pm UTC) | | | Yeah, SmartFTP was the best free FTP program. It's probably still one of the best paid ones too. After they removed their free version I tried quite a few others but none really suited my ways of working. | |

pmvForum | | Re: Free Online Services (16th Nov 09 at 6:28pm UTC) | | I use FileZilla for sites, but am currently running SmartFTP trial for another server that I use... mainly as a test to see what it's like. It has the best resume feature out of all of them!  | |

Guest | | Re: Free Online Services (16th Nov 09 at 8:05pm UTC) | | | Another great free online server would be ThunderBird, it works great as a email client for those that don't like using the default ones or if one isn't provided with your webhost. | |
