I vote that we establish an executive committee who
can oversee the issues and elect, by secret ballot, an
inquiry group who then can examine the issues setout
by the committee and report back. The final decison
to be made by a board, elected from all the representatives , who then can draw up a proposal
to place back before the executive committee. Or not. Up to you really

Originality is the variety that makes the spice of life.

Awesome work - Both of you: Shadowmistress & BJ_M. As wel as all who contributed suggestions / ideas.

Some minor feedback - I think the comment earlier about having an indication of the duration was a very good one. Expanding upon this, my suggestion is (decent size font, at the bottom of the opening screen):

"Welcome to the VideoHelp tour.

The duration of this presentation is only a couple of minutes. During that time you will be introduced to the main areas of the site that will be of most use to you."

The statement sets their expectations (in terms of duration), and also (hopefully) gets their interest hooked so that they're more likely to continue.

My line of work is software testing, and I'm regularly testing websites. Common feedback is that things take too long, but people will venture further if:

A) They know how long it will take, especially if it's a short time.
B) They know they'll get something out of it.

I know it'll take re-work, but I think it'll be worth it if more people are more inclined to view it.

The above aside, like I said, awesome job.

Daamon.

P.S. I'm always willing to beta-test anything like this, or any software. Just email / PM me. For references, see jimmalenko...

What Daamon said. Same goes with surveys and
questionnaires. You have to state a time or number of
pages.. etc.

[BJ_M]

like those phone survey people that call up and say they have a 2 minute survey and it stretchs into 10 minutes ...


sometimes i answer them and give such stupid responses - prob. wrecks the survey ...

Ha ha ha - But deserved if they're gonna understate the duration...

[BJ_M]

[mcbit]

Not unless it's possessive like "it's the poster's choice", or a contraction like "poster is - the poster's here now". Plurals don't take one

It's not "many car's on the road", it's "many cars on the road", right?

Don't offer corrections unless you're sure you're right

Goddammit will you Americans never learn to seak English,

singular "it's the poster's choice"

plural "it's the posters' choice"

[BJ_M]

yea - they dont "seak english" very well ...

[BJ_M]

in the example above -- it looks to me as if capmaster is totally correct - but English is not my strong suite ...

[mcbit]

OK so i don't writ englesh evry wall

but

"the poster's choice"

and

"the posters' choice"

is garmetically connect!!!

[p_l]

in the example above -- it looks to me as if capmaster is totally correct - but English is not my strong suite ...

You did that on purpose for the ironic effect, right?

[BJ_M]

i told you - i meant it ...

i guess it should be

not my strong suit

[BJ_M]

and yes -- i use spellbound ..

but its not as good as spellcheckers for IE

[Craig Tucker]

anything else ? :P

no to full screen i think .. its a java script and i only know the entries to make it a certain size window , not full screen .... ill look into it though ...

animations dont look to fast here -- maybe its your super computer ?

For full screen in flash
fscommand("FullScreen","true");

I clicked on the link and it loads until the bar is full but then just hangs.

Just clicked on it again and it played ok.

I don't think baldrick has gotten the last version yet. I'm sure it's not the finished version he's linked to in this thread.

[Craig Tucker]
