Hosting
If it is a finished work, you can contact Spirit to get it hosted at Quaddicted. Feel free to mail it straightaway.
If that is not an option, if it is a work-in-progress, you do not want to wait a week before Spirit replies (though he is quick if you packaged everything well and send a direct HTTP link to the file) or otherwise you want to host elsewhere, http://www.quaketastic.com/ is there for you. The password for uploading is "ZigguratVertigoBlewTronynsSocksOff", the username "quaketastic".
For permanent hosting you can also freely use https://archive.org/.
Do not use services that do not support direct download links. And please do not use volatile hosts like Dropbox, Google Drive or any ad-financed free hosting providers.
