Hi there!

With the video island being cleaned up,
I can't seem to get any videos up,
because they have to be unhumanly small.

I had a video that was about 40 seconds,
and it was even too big,

while befor I got 5 minutes videos up..

Is this erm.. only here, or is there indeed a problem there?
are there only allowed small vids now?

Hey there, PsychodelicS! Are you hosting your vids some place first before you submit them to us? We have a list of places that we'll accept -- see Hobbes's Free Video Hosting Guide.

We recommend now that you use 2 places, some place like YouTube for your main link and then some place like zShare for an extra link so people can download your vid, too.

Anyway, after you host your vid in one of those places, then you go to the Submit page on the main site and fill in the boxes there. Down at the bottom is the place where you upload the image that goes with your vid and that's required to be a jpeg file, under 20KB and 201x113 pixels.

Does any of that answer your question? If not, then let us know and we'll be glad to try to help you better!

I think there might have been some confusion between the image upload section and the Video Link section

Maybe it was just "one of those things." Anyway, I'm glad if it's working for you now!
