 Post subject: Question about FTP server

So, I have my art syncing or synced my first wave of art to the FTP art gallery that was made. First method I set it up with was from this link here https://revision3.com/oneoff/hak5gtae5/ Using Windows 7 to make an FTP, then I went to FileZilla as it's said to be more secure. However, I must admit, I am somewhat wary about doing this, even though I set it up where it won't remember my passwords, at all. Should I be overly worried about being compromised or having the firewall not doing its job? I want to make sure that nothing happens to my computer as I upload to the FTP, if that makes any sense.

You don't really have to worry. Just opening up FileZilla to upload files to the LD5 FTP site, it really doesn't "expose" your computer at all. It may look scary that you can browse all of your PC's files on the left to drag and drop to upload, but it's not like anyone can access files on your computer through the link you're making.
