Tips for submitting a video
To keep LVI a user-friendly and organized site, we would like everyone to take a look at a few things to make note of when submitting a new video.
TITLE - The title can be anything you want it to be - the name of the song, a shippy name, whatever you like! Please be sure to use correct capitalization and spelling.
DESCRIPTION - Again, this can say anything you want it to say, but please be sure to check your spelling! 
SONG & ARTIST - A common mistake is to switch those around, putting the artist's name in the song area and song title in the artist area. Make sure those are in the correct order! Also, if you are not sure how to spell an artist's name, you can find that out with a quick Google search. We have several artists on here that are spelled 4 or 5 different ways, which makes it difficult if you are searching for a particular artist! 
To keep things consistent, we ask that you capitalize every word in the song title, such as "Man In The Mirror" or "All The Same".
VIDEO URL - If you are using a Youtube link, please post the full link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bunchofnumbers instead of using a link that begins like - http://youtu.be/ - the site will not embed the video if it is entered that way.
If you are posting a link that is private, please be sure to also post the password somewhere! I have made that mistake many times myself.
IMAGE UPLOAD - Please keep the image name - picture.jpg for example - fairly short, and with no special characters (such as * & or #). Also, make sure each image has a unique name. If you upload an image with the same name as another one, you will end up with 2 videos with the same image. 
FANDOMS/CHARACTERS/SHIPS - A lot of the fandoms will appear in the dropdown menu. If you are submitting a vid with a fandom not currently on LVI, just make sure it is spelled correctly. Characters should be listed by their full name - such as Jack Shephard - and ships listed by their common "smush" name if available - such as Skate or Delena. If your ship doesn't have a "smush" name, you can list them with a slash - such as Edward/Bella.
CATEGORY - We will hopefully be adding some new categories soon! In the meantime, just choose the one you think fits your video best.
MATURE THEMES - Use your own judgement here. Take into account nudity or violence, and language! If you submit a vid containing any of this without being marked and the Council feels it needs a warning, we will add it. 
This might seem a lot to keep in mind, but if every vidder can take that extra minute to be sure their submission is correct, it will save everyone time in correcting this and help keep LVI running smoothly. Thanks!
