kewet 1,720 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I have previously been able to post videos directly in a thread and I could then see the first frame of the video, click it and see the movie. It was a while ago and I just tried doing it again but it now seem I can only post pictures and gifs. Am I stupid that can not find out how I do it or has something changed ? Link to post
Admin 14,788 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 You are completely correct, this feature was removed unfortunately - both for legal and cost reasons. Given the site is currently completely free, we have to make savings where possible unless we get more donations. One of those savings is through server storage costs, as allowing members to upload videos can quickly take up a lot of space. There is potentially going to be a return of some form of video gallery soon though, so hopefully that will be a far better alternative than the previous thread posting for videos anyway. Apologies about the inconvenience in the meantime, although I don't think too many people actually knew about the feature. Link to post

spywareonya 37,961 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Undertook PM with Steve about it, I don't feel at ease doing that... Think I'll wait for some kind of forum gallery for vids to be build again 1 Link to post
