NOTE: The other option for uploading files is to click on the “Attach files to this message” link that you’ll see just below the box you type in when responding to a Client Section message.

Uploading Multiple Files

To upload multiple files you should add them to a folder and then zip them before you upload them to the Client Section. Zipping a file creates a compressed version of the file that is considerably smaller than the original. Also, by zipping a folder of files, you can upload or download them all at once to our client section, which saves time. Here’s how to do this:

On PCs:

1. Create a folder and copy your files into the folder.
2. Right click on the folder and then click on “Add to Zip file” or “Add to Archive” to zip the folder.

There are more instructions on zip files on the Microsoft office website.

NOTE: If your computer doesn’t have a program to compress files, “Winzip”: is a popular one that you can download a trial version of.

On Macs:

1. Create a folder and copy your files into the folder.
2. Right click on the folder and then click on “Create archive of ____”.
3. You can send choose the zipped file when you browse on http://www.yousendit.com

Large Folders or Files

If your zipped folder is larger than 10 MB, then they won’t upload to the client section. In this case you could divide your files into folders that are smaller than 10 MB or your could use an online ftp program.

The easiest option for this would be to go to “Yousendit.com” (http://www.yousendit.com):

1. In the yousendit homepage’s “Send a File Now” box, please enter admin@imagexmedia.com into the “Recipient Email”, your own email, and a “Subject”.
2. Then you can click “Browse” or “Choose File” for the “Select a File” field.
3. A window will pop up and allow you to look for your file on your hard drive.
4. Click on the zipped folder that you’d like to send and then click “Choose” at the bottom of the window.
5. Click on the green “Send it” button.
