Will host your SWG fan films
RareGem, i'm trying to get them to host my video but i ran into a few problems.
1- I need to attach a .txt file into the zip folder, then send them the link --- I am not hosting this video on my site. I cant upload the .zip file with the .txt inside of it. How important is that txt file anyway? I'm sending them just the link without the txt file..
2- I can choose to email them the .zip file (with the .txt inside) but since i use hotmail,I can't attach a file that large :/
I need to get another site to host this, the person that is hosting it for me now is going to take it down off of her site for eating bandwidth.
but thanks for all the comments guys! wow

I might be able to host it. I have the necessary space, but it all depends on how much traffic it's getting. a hundred people d/ling a 60MB file can swallow up all your monthly bandwidth pretty quick.

I allowed him 35GB of bandwidth, up to just under 30GB right now, so he's got about 100 more full downloads to go before I pull it, just under 500 full downloads so far.

Well that kills my site for certain. Imight have a solution though. Trytaking it to TheForce.net. They host Star Wars fanfilms and I certainly think this qualifies.

Heh, kinda got caught up in making sure it got good hosting I didn't do a praise-post. First of all, I'm kinda a closet-fan of 'Machinima'.
I watched the video 5 times tonight. I love it! Never heard that song before this, but I like that too. Overall great improvised use of the game's capabilities, cool camera angles, well-planned out/directed.
Gotta remember that trick too.. putting candles inside Force-crystals to make them look like colored lamps.
Btw, if you're planning on making another show at some point - I'm not playing on more than one server (no free time) but I'd still love to help if you ever need anything. If you needed a custom-character build, I could toss it together and play 'em for you, then throw that one out and bring in a new one - you get the idea.
