The opposite of downloading, uploading is sending something FROM your computer TO the internet.
For example, you can upload your photographs to a flickr account http://flickr.com
Or, you could download a program TO your computer, from http://download.com

The transfer of a file from a "source" computer to a "destination" computer. The source is often a PC or home computer; the destination is often a computer hosting a web site. Transfer is usually done using FTP (file transfer protocol). Numerous programs are available for this kind of transfer, such as Fetch, Gopher, etc. The capability is also included in some current web publishing and editing programs such as FrontPage and BBedit.

Uploading is sending a file from your computer to another computer or a web site.
Like if you have a song you are sending to someone, you are uploading, they are downloading.

Downloading is when you receive information from another computer or the Internet.
