Large files in add-ons

Hello

I made a map covering the whole of France with a level of detail of 7. This corresponds to images like this
littoral-2.jpg

or like that:
Bretagne.jpg


As I want to add more pictures, I continue in the next post...

This map of France is provided as a basis for more detailed maps.
Right now I'm working on a map of Paris and the Paris’ region, with that accuracy:
paris4.jpg

or even more precise for some locations.
Versailles4.jpg


I tried to upload the map on ML but either the files are too large (45 MB when zipped), or I did not understood the tip to load them on the FTP. :oops:

If you think it might be of interest to some of you, I would be happy to accept a little help. :mrgreen:

Thank you

If you'd care to e-mail the file to me, I'd be happy to upload it for you.
My e-mail address is bhegwood@woh.rr.com.

Thanks, Brain-Dead Bob :wink:

Jogad,
we got it (or did Bob upload it for you?).
At any rate, Bob will check it soon.

Jogad,

I have examined and approved the level 6-7 VT entries you submitted
to the ML. May take a day or two, but they look good on my machine.

Thanks, Brain-Dead

Hello

Finally I managed to upload my file without an exotic program for FTP.
:idea: Just typing "ftp:\\ibiblio.org" in the Windows Expolorer does the trick. That opens the remote data as if they were in the folders of your computer.
Just to prevent the poor Windows user to be confused about searching, installing and using a new program.

Thank you very much for the care that you take to it and especially to Bob for his kind answer to my e-mail.
