Can I post videos to be hosted by this site? Howard posted a .MOV, but I converted mine to .AVI so they play better. When I try and upload the .AVI it says "cannot upload this file type", or "No file was selected for upload". Do I have to host them offsite?

Someone better informed will no doubt answer this shortly.  However, my suggestion is to host them on youtube and then link to them here.  Might as well use up their storage space!

Ya I 2nd the youtube suggestion
"A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks"

If at all possible, we prefer to have videos hosted on youtube.

Under certain circumstances, where we must maintain control of the video/content, it doesn't make sense.  For general video content, however, we'd rather utilize youtube's free hosting, rather than have IC pay.

It may seem trivial, but you get enough video content and storage/streaming requirements start to increase exponentially.  Besides, youtube works quite well, and the price is just right.

Let us know if you run into any issues using youtube - I'm certain the community here can help out with most any common questions/issues.  Right off the bat, though, you'll be restricted to a 10 minute upload, so hopefully your video does not exceed 10 min.

Thanks! The first one has some weird special affect that got flipped on in my pocket. Whoops! That's ok though, it softens the picture and gives Drylock that hollywood look! :)
