This has probably been posted before but oh well:

There seems to be a lot of videos being posts on MR lately, so I was thinking maybe it was time to open a Video Gallery and take these thread out of the "Community Discussions".

I don't know. Its just an idea.

I actually think it will work fine with links to youtube movies. It already takes 5 years to load all the pictures in the picture galley. Consider videos...:(

I think it is a good idea. The only thing I see as an issue would be bandwidth for the site so that is why I like Josias idea about linking the videos to help on the bandwidth...

Right, we wouldn't have MR host or display the videos. You would have to go to external links to view them.

Bandwidth is definitely a consideration.

Youtube might be the best option.

Gah! Plymouth
I always wondered why MR doesn't have a gallery of some sort, like photopost pro or vBgallery.

Such a nice piece of software vBgallery is

Which is what we do now... if you want a certified thread for videolinks, PM arn or someone, and show them the thread...
