Hey guys,

Long story short, or in todays terms: TL,DR = I'm looking for a lightwheight ftp program, just to add and remove files from my server.

TL version,
My old page was deleted due to missing a few payments, so I'm trying to rebuild it, but my trusty fireFTP plugin for ff is no more. Being the tactical genius that I am, I have no backup either! But I do still have most files. It's a mostly pointless exercise anyway, as Flash apparently doesn't even run in browsers anymore... 
Computers make you feel old real quick!  :crutches:

In time, I plan to make youtube videos of my flash demos and probably rebuild my site from scrach in another form. But I need an ftp program/plugin to upload/download files to my webserver. I was hoping you guys have some suggestions, preferably free. :)

Thanks!

Also, long time no see, but I'm infinitely gratefull that this site is still up and running!  :updance:

Ah, the good Doctor!  :cheers:

Thanks, I will check that out!
It's not all bad though, I guess my site was due for an update anyway. I think the main layout was still created by a table, which was already bad practice back when I wrote it. But then again, if it aint broke...

Once upon a time I was planning on porting most of my flash stuff to SVG or Canvas as well.
Gotta get with the times yo!  O0

I really hope the browsers have settled on the w3c standards in the mean time! Must've been well over 10 years since I did any webdev, but I still have nightmares from all of the individual browser hacks. CSS was still pretty new back then and I hated it, although it's clearly a neater solution than all of the inline formatting.

Thanks DD, good seeing you again! :)

I second the support for Filezilla, it works well enough for me. Also, I'm not sure if it works outside of Newgrounds or not, but they have developed their own player to keep their legacy Flash content going, might be of some use to you? https://www.newgrounds.com/flash/player
I love semi-colons way too much ^^;
