Not a literary work, but was experimenting with video and Microsoft Movie Maker. Made a short of my daughter playing with a puzzle type toy she has.

I don't see why people can't post their film-making efforts, if that's possible.

But how do you start it?

Should just be able to click on the big picture and it will bring up another browser window and start playing the video.

I don't see a problem except maybe Bandwidth. And there will be some rules that will HAVE TO BE ADHERED TO. I would talk to Paul and make sure it won't be an issue with Bandwidth.
And then we need to make some solid rules as to content for it. Maybe in the M forum James we can talk about what rules so Paul and the other Mods can have a say in it as well.

Good plan. This video stuff is completely over my head.

I still couldn't get it to work. Get a message saying I need to download some "flash player," whatever that is. (Last thing I want to see is some player flashing himself.)

Half the time I download something new, it just gives my computer problems and me headaches. Afraid I'll have to pass.

It doesn't use Paul's bandwidth....it will use the bandwidth of the host...in this case, photobucket.com

Some users (particularly those outside the US) may be concerned with their own bandwidth as well. I believe this contributed to the sig pic, and regular picture size limits (aside from the obvious pain).

For those folks....they just need not open the video. Opening the thread won't hurt though....as I do not believe there is any way to "autoplay" a posted video.

The post above is nothing but a hyperlink to an off site file, that is opened when clicked.

James, you shouldn't have any problems downloading the plug in you need. I know how computers can be finicky though.

This is technology is virtually impossible on a dial-up connection. You need some description of a "high speed" connection to participate.
