Depends what you want to do with it. If you want to send it to someone, and it's a big file, you could upload it somewhere like Filedropper, and then get that person to download it. If you want to show a finished animation, then youTube or Vimeo or whatever would be your best bet.

I.ve tried to get into "YouTube" without any luck ! I registered waiting approval and still can't upload !
Do you know anything about YouTube that will head me in the right direction ?
P.S., I zipped the file and it still will not go eMail.

Some mail services have a file size limit (I think Gmail does anyway.) As mentioned earlier, for a really large file most people will post a link to the file uploaded to a cloud storage service. I like DropBox myself but sometimes I may use GoogleDrive.

For animation, YouTube should be the most convenient. I recently set up a YT account for my daughter so she could post her animations and speed draw movies, and the process went quickly. What are you having trouble with?

For my own stuff, I prefer Vimeo, but either one should work.

I request "Upload" for YouTube i get a message; "Unauthorized" I have signed with Google if that's what it takes !
I'm still not sure how to set up a Youtube account !

I haven't run into that but try Googling 'Youtube upload unauthorized'. I noticed there are several hits so maybe it's a common problem. Looks like there are a few solutions. Maybe you can find an answer there?

Good luck! :)

Google & YouTube both ask for a "Channel" I have tried to create this, again without success !
I need someone to discuss this "Getting On Line With YouTube" with.
