Just added a video directory to the forum. You can post videos from youtube and metacafe. Not sure on any other sites just yet. Check it out here: http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/video.php

Adding a new video is just like making a post.
1. Go to http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/video.php and click on a video category (we can add categories as we go)
2. Click on the button "Add Video"
3. Enter a video title, the link to the video and a description for the video. Click submit. Actually you can just add the link in the video link box and click on the "Load information from service" button and it will populate the title and description boxes for you. Very easy.

The cool part about this is that we can categorize videos, rate videos, see how many times a video has been viewed and post comments under each video. Kinda cool.

This doesn't replace the video forum. You can still post videos there or in the new video directory. Whichever you prefer.

Pretty cool, thanks Mike!

neat!

I have some vids up now. Anyone wanna post theirs in the directory next? Bueller, Bueller...

You might get more comments on your aquarium and fish videos here than on youtube perhaps. We'll definitely screen out the inappropriate comments for sure. There is a "report video" link that lets you report a video to moderators.

Try it out peoples.
