How to distribute livecd ISOs

hey all, I'm working on a Larch-based Openbox LiveCD that I'd like to be able to distribute to the community.  Unfortunately I don't have any public hosting that I can use (well I do but it isn't sufficient).  What do people normally do in this case when they want to distribute large ISO files?  I was thinking I could create a torrent seed for it, but I've never done that before so I don't know how well it would work.

I'm not so sure this is the right thing for you, but you can have a look at Tuxfamily.

Good luck

Oh that looks perfect!  I'll let you guys know how it turns out.  If other people have suggestions, I'm still open to those.

Re: How to distribute livecd ISOs

Thanks.  I've applied for a project account on tuxfamily using the name OMNIArch   I couldn't think of a better name that also had 'arch' in it.  If all goes well, I'll get in touch with you about torrenting.
