Title: Can we upload short Flip videos to LuLu?
Post by: dgberg on February 28, 2011, 12:20:15 pm
Tried to upload a 37 second video here over the weekend. Would not work. The file was much larger then the 4096 kb image max. (28mb)
Anyway to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Why not just post a link to it?

Here's one I like, and no fancy '57 chrome boobs either... must be getting old.

Nice one, Rob. My favorite bit is the head-turning -- especially the black poodle.

Never done that. Could you talk me through it?
Thanks

Rob, if you can do that with the new Fiesta I come and film! (and we sell the movie to Repsol, you buy a M9 and I got a Red Epic)

Dan,

Here is how I post a link to Rob's video:

1. I clicked the "Quote" button on your message to open a "Post Reply" window.
2. I have already copied the URL for Rob's video (because I don't have any of my own, and Rob so nicely supplied one).
3. Next, I let my mouse cursor hover over the row of icons just above the row of "smileys." The first is "Insert Image" and the second one in is "Insert hyperlink."
4. I click the "Insert Hyperlink" icon, which opens a Javascript box with "http://" in it. I paste Rob's URL into the box and get a bunch of html code (don't panic!) which results in this appearing in my post: http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=1_kwxzU4wL4&vq=medium (http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=1_kwxzU4wL4&vq=medium)
5. Now I can click on the "Post" button at the bottom, or preview it before posting.

Now my reply contains a clickable link to Rob's video. The only tricky part really is finding the button to insert a hyperlink. I hope this helps.

Eric

P.S. I suspect Rob didn't actually produce this video. I think he only found it on YouTube. The reason I suspect this is that the number of scenes without female models is too great for his work. But thanks for finding the video for us, Rob.

Aaaah Eric, can't accept the glory: it belongs to my bro-in-lo the 'bookends' Mercedes man, who did the finding. He's ten years younger than I and as I'm thirty-nine and holding, he must be grateful to me for keeping him forever twenty-nine. Guess it does work: he hasn't lost a hair on his head! Took him along to Ingleston Race Circuit once to see Jackie Stewart do a demo lap after he became World Champ... them wuz the days; JS managed to stall. He was great: connected via radio to the PA he made a joke of it! Of course, being a champ and being Scottish he could probaby have walked on water at the time. Incidentally, he used to be a very approachable man. Shot some of him at a motor show in Glasgow along with my muse and some other kids - he was doing a gig for Dunlop or Britvac, I think. And I sort of imagined that it was always girls... maybe I just remember the finer moments of my career. Thank goodness for selective memory!
