Ugh, file transfers are no excuse to use Gaim. Especially for those of us
behind NAT, where they don't work. SCP's not much better (although you can
forward that port). Good (err, bad) old FTP's much better when you don't need
the encryption.
If you don't have access to FTP, try http://dropload.com/
