Host a Photoshop file and share it as a link

Put a .psd online at its own address so a collaborator can download the working file without a transfer service or a shared drive.

You can host:

Free to use. Your PSD file is live at your-name.99helpers.site in about ten seconds.

What is a .psd file?

PSD is Photoshop's native document format, holding layers, masks, adjustment layers, smart objects and effects as an editable stack rather than a flattened image. It's the working file — what you keep so the design can still be changed.

What people use PSD files for

  • Handing working files to another designer
  • Delivering source files with a finished project
  • Templates others customise
  • Archiving the editable version of a design

What opens a PSD file

  • Adobe Photoshop
  • Affinity Photo and GIMP, which import PSD with varying fidelity
  • Figma, which imports PSD layers
  • Preview and Windows Photos show a flattened preview only

How to host a PSD file

  1. 1

    Drop your PSD file in

    Drag it onto the box at the top of this page, or click to choose it. Files up to 25 MB are supported, and nothing is uploaded until you publish.

  2. 2

    Pick an address

    Type a name and we'll tell you straight away whether it's free. That becomes the link: design-source.99helpers.site

  3. 3

    Publish and share

    Create a free account — that step exists so the file is yours to update, replace or delete — and the link is live within seconds.

What happens when someone opens the link

The file downloads and opens in Photoshop or a compatible editor. Browsers can't render PSD, so recipients need design software to do anything with it.

Why host a PSD file instead of emailing it?

PSDs are too big for email almost by definition, and transfer services expire the download after a week. A hosted link is permanent, downloads at full speed, and doesn't require the recipient to have Creative Cloud.

Worth knowing before you publish

  • Host a PNG or JPEG preview alongside it so people can see the design without opening Photoshop.
  • PSDs get very large; 25 MB is the limit, so flattening unused layers or saving as PSD with maximum compatibility off can help.
  • Layer names and hidden layers travel with the file — worth a look before sending it outside your team.

PSD hosting questions

Can someone view a PSD without Photoshop?
Not in the browser. They'd need Photoshop, Affinity Photo, GIMP or similar. Hosting a PNG export alongside gives everyone something they can actually look at.
How do I send a large Photoshop file?
Upload it here and share the link — no attachment limit, no expiry, and nothing for the recipient to sign into. Files up to 25 MB are supported.
Are layers preserved?
Yes. The file is served exactly as uploaded, so it opens with every layer, mask and smart object intact.
