I thought it might be fun to share some funny video clips from China Rush. Flickr only gives 2 video uploads per month though. Does anyone know a free site that allows more? I've never looked into youtube,but was hoping for a site that could be used in China ok. Perhaps I should look into the site Simon used for his ninja clip for the anniversary?

I believe photobucket allows more. I have used this but imbedding may not be a good idea. every time one opens that page the videos will run, regardless of which post you are intending to look at, wouldnt they? And if you had more than one, would they all run at once? I didnt think video could be imbedded. Correct me if I am wrong.

ok, You may be right. Now that you mention it, I do remember clicking on the triangle shapped icons to start videos. I have only embedded pics, not videos. Keep investigating. You could just post a link to the video. Thats fairly direct anyway. And yes the pic link does work now. The toolbar doesnt exist on "replies to" however which is unfortunate.

thanks RJ. Well we used to be able to embed videos on this site. There was a little icon next to the icon for posting pics and it was really easy to do. It only played when you clicked on it. I'm not sure why this was removed or if an explanation was given or not. But we learnt how to post pics using html code. { I see now a link is back for posting pics...does it work?] and that went ok. Not sure why embedding the video clips is not working. I was just going to do it on a China Rush discussion in a separate post. If I can get the embedding to work I'll investigate photobucket.
