I voted yes because there are a fair few videos floating around, and it would be good to have them all in one place.

BUT I dont know of the concequences regarding storage and things like that, so it might not be worth it. The only way to find out is to have a mod/admin speak up.

...hello...

Guys, we discussed this a while ago and decided that at least for the time being we will put that idea on hold... There are bandwith and server load issues to take into account.

Yes I am really curious about this cos I got sent an email with the MOST AMAZING driver I have ever seen on it... it was in like Iraq or something and it is awesome.

And I know that ppl on the forums would get a kick out of it, but I can't post it on here.

Is there a way around this? I only got it as a wmv.file, not a link to a site.

If I had my own server setup, I'd offer space on it so that all that would be required would be a new section on here and links setup directly to my server (click 'here' to upload video - with the upload going directly to my server, and click 'here' to view - with the download coming directly from my server), this would eliminate any possible problems with extra load on this site or potential bandwidth problems, but I can't possibly do that for at least a few more months... :(

i still dont see why the example above would not work, and it would redirect you to the thread in whatever topic/section the video is located(it would be hosted by someone else as is the case at the moment)maybe the person psoting the thread could be responsible for putting a link in the "videos section" in a voluntary manner

Not the FWD on two wheels is it? With the bloke leaning out and touching the road?

Yep, I've got a few there already, like this: http://www.fordforums.com.au/photos/...cat=500&page=1

Not sure about what file formats are allowed, I know AVI and Quicktime work. Also I'm not sure about what the largest video size allowable is.

If anybody could fill in those little details, I would appreciate it, as would a few others I'm sure.
