Help creating a website

[gluepack]

Well, I give up. I'll use my own FTP to send files to my website as, although I have no problem doing that, I cannot get Cumulus to do it, despite the fact that it transfers files to other services fine.

It begs the question as to why we are generating and shipping graphics files and creating so much traffic when (I thought) it would be better to just send the data string and generate the graphics dynamically (as the weather services obviously do). Perhaps I am wrong.

Sorry, you've lost me. I can't find any other posts from you in this thread. What are you trying to do? Where is your post explaining what your problem is and what exactly you have tried? Just posting "I give up" seems pointless to me. Are you interested in getting any help?

You can do it that way if you want - of course you can; some people already do. You'll need some software to create the graphs though, and I'm very sorry but I haven't written any.
