Unfortunately I was not taught this stuff when I was in school because it was two entirely different degrees at the time and more and more people are expecting me to have knowledge of this AND design without any understanding of what the difference is between a DEVELOPER and a DESIGNER...argh...anyhow...there's my rant for today...thanks again for your help...hopefully I can figure out what all of it means now...ha!

Here are suggestions:
1) Instead of giving out direct links to a PDF, create a page with a link to the download, and point people there. That way, you can modify the link to the file whenever you revise it and upload a new version, and folks will always be downloading the latest one.

Cant I just upload a new file and replace the old one without having to repost or change the URL? I would like to just have one URL I can direct people to so that they can see my resume and portfolio but the number changing keeps giving them different versions which are filled with errors and incorrect information.
