Welcome to classfiles.net
This site provides drop boxes for submitting class files.
You need to know your course number or name, or your school name to be
able to drop files.
Get the web address, or the e-mail address from your
instructor.
------------------------------------
Generic instructions for E-mailing large files for distance
learning classes.
Files will be placed in a class "drop-box" separate from other e-mail.
You must get the drop box e-mail address from your instructor.
NOTE: only the attached file will be
retained, any other material in the e-mail is
discarded (i.e. text, subject, html, etc.).
NOTE: your file name must be identifiable to you.
The from e-mail address is not retained.
It may seem obvious to some of us, however there
are many students these days who do not put their name and class number
on their work. Put
some identification in the document. Unidentified (either by
filename or at the beginning of the document, preferably both) documents WILL BE DISCARDED.
Your file name must be unique. Suggested:
yourname-projectname.ext
or
yourname-coursenumber-projectname.ext
(the extension [ext] can be anything appropriate
for your
file e.g. doc, jpeg, xls, ods, odt, ... )
DOCX files
NOTE: the
newest MS Office file formats ( docx, xlsx, etc. produced
by MS Office on VISTA for instance ) are not readable by most users,
they are non-compatible with previous versions of any software,
including MS products. MS patches which attempt to make these
files accessible to other Windows and Mac users are poor at best.
Formating and content may be lost or distorted, or no conversion
performed at all.
Therefore, to avoid the possibility that you submissions are
un-readable, we suggest using standards compliant formats such as rtf,
xml, odt, or else set your programs to save using the more
widely
used earlier format versions of MS Office such as Word95,
Word97/2007/XP, Word2003XML. Unless, of course, the recipient has specifically requested a docx or xlsx file.
maximum files size is 10MB. Larger documents,
should be either compressed or dropped in several parts (identified).
