Wahhhh…box.net has a 10MB file size limit and the file I wanna upload is 10.5 MB…this is really frustrating!

I started using this thing one minute after I read this post. That’s how exciting it is. I had just today put the finishing touches on a set of new electronic tunes, one year in the making, and I had been planning to sell some CDs but in a rush of generosity I decided to try this Box.net widgy and make my music freely available. The combined registration and uploading procedure is one of the easiest I have ever come across. Before I knew quite what had happened, my ten tunes were housed in a beautiful box on my sidebar. The way it springs to life when the page is loaded is very sexy. Thank you WordPress.com for making my blogging life so much fun. Love you, bye!

That’s such an awesome widget! Thanks guys! Now to figure out how to make the best use of it without getting slammed by “the man…”
Apr 24th at 5:12 am
I’ve been using Box.net for nearly a year now and already share files with my readers via Box.net. That this is now integrated into WordPress.com is really one of the most useful new features for me.
Apr 24th at 6:41 am
Great widget. Thanks a lot .
Apr 24th at 8:32 am

Apr 24th at 7:57 pm
Doesn’t work… Widget doesn’t appear in my blog – just an empty place. Sorry, I do like it.
Apr 24th at 8:17 pm
Works! Thanks!
Apr 24th at 8:43 pm
This is an absolutely brilliant widget!! I can now upload whole short stories to my writing blog. Thank you so much for this – definitely the most useful widget so far!
Apr 24th at 9:43 pm
This is a very good tool, but it’s not working. When I try to get my HTML code by clicking on the link of the sidebar widget, another window opens and Its says: “Box.net/lite is temporarily not accepting uploads. Thanks for your interest.
Please email support@box.net for support ”
How can we fix this?
Thank you!

Apr 25th at 8:17 pm
nice widget, although I’m missing a few things with wp embedding:
- a list of color codes for all objects in each themes (i had to go the photoshop copy/paste method)
- this wiki still shows a headerbar (at least it does on blix)
Please reply,
thanks in advance

Box@net — registration is closed off.. hmmm..!! It could have been a good update for my blog.. Phew..!! I cant register at box.. Can anyone invite me ..??
Apr 26th at 8:33 am
I think this is one of the most innovative ideas I’ve come across since my encounter with wordpress half a year ago.
The beauty of customisation and the sorts… ah!
