Adding pictures.........Adding video's?

[V529]

Earlier this year our website got a much needed upgrade. A poster can now add just about any size picture without having to first "downsize" it to fit the Website forums specifications. (not technically correct in that if your picture is too large the forum will shrink it to fit). The end result is that we no longer have to fuss around with downsizing pictures to post them. ....Whew! finally!

My question to anyone and everyone: Is there a need, a good use for........ posting videos? Please add your thoughts.
Thank you

Most forums I frequent allow posting a link to a video hosted elsewhere, like YouTube or your personal Goggle drive or whatever. I would think that would work here, although you might not get the fancy display.

Some forums allow this: [youtube]891234569[/youtube] where the number is the Youtube video ID number.

I would think that either option would require minimal effort and storage on our end.

If we're paying much for storage I'd argue against hosting the videos locally.
