[bksvol-discuss] Re: Books I have for submission

The file only takes about 1 to 2 minutes to submit and then it just sits
there. I waited about 5 minutes this last time before closing things out. 

Do you think I should just wait until the freeze is over. It is not like the
computer is frozen just the JAWS can't read the window. If I close that
window with alt/F4 I am back running.

Hey there,

I'm not sure what type of connection you are using, but when I submit my 
scans, which are usually significantly smaller than 50 mb, it will still 
generally take about 30-45 seconds to upload. How long do you wait before 
you "try again"? Or do you close the web page after awhile. Even with a dsl 
connection, upload speeds are much slower than download capacity.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if a 50 meg file took upwards of ten to 
fifteen minutes to upload to the site.

Scott
