Uploading a Jar file not to Greenfoot site

About a year ago I saw somebody had a scenario on Greenfoot. The uploader had said the file was too large to have playable on the Greenfoot site, and had a link to a webpage with his game, where it was totally playable. I know that the "Share" button allows you to make your scenario as a webpage, but does it have a file size limit like the Greenfoot site does? If so, is there any way to upload a scenario that is larger than the Greenfoot site allows, without having to make your own website?

No, it has no limit. But you need to find somewhere to host it.

So, you're asking if there's any way to upload a scenario to the Greenfoot site that is larger than the maximum size allowed on the Greenfoot site? The answer is no, of course not.

Thanks! You've been a great help. I think I'll look into web hosting services.

Do you know of any good sites that could host scenarios aside from here ?

Bench try using Scratch, its a simple website where you can make scenarios similar to Greenfoot but less complex and more basic, but that's the only other one i know, and hey can you try out my game? Street Racer X i want to know if i did good because i dream of becoming a great game programmer or designer or even a company just as powerful as Nintendo someday. Its my first game and i wanted to know how i did so Bench please give it a try

for web hosting, i recommend amazon AWS. they have a great service called EC2 which is free for a year and will essentially give you a remote computer you can run a server on. its somewhat complicated, but there are some good guides such as this . it may be difficult for many people, but it is a very useful thing to know how to do. using this method would probably be the best solution (not necessarily the easiest) for creating a small and simple website for this purpose. as an easier solution, you could also just share the project as a jar file and post a download link for it.
