On the members main page there is a category in the menu called "Search for AMVs". All of the links in that category are there to help you find videos. On the right hang side of the members main page is a section called "Top lists" that also has links of interest.

Once you find a video you want to download you use the links at the bottom of the video profile page in the "Downloads" section to get them.

Obviously you didn't realize that what she posted was a link, and a very helpful one at that =|

Sorry... I've been fighting with this site for hours trying to watch ONE video. I am having alot of trouble with it and I'm getting very annoyed. Sorry if I came off sounding like an ass. It just seems like there should be a link that says "watch video" and off I'd be.
Why I have to jump through so many hoops to do something that should be so simple annoys me a great deal. :?

Actually, it's not very complicated at all. We just don't have the brick-in-skull simplicity of the Tube.

I had some problems when I first started, too. But, it's pretty simple once you get started. Do this:

1. Click the AMV logo you see above to take you to the main site
2. Scroll down to see the search box
3. Put in an anime or music or whatever to search for and click "search"
4. You may get a page that talks about donating. This is only an in-between page. Just go to the bottom where it says "pledge, pledge, proceed" and click "proceed" to continue searching.
5. You will see a list of amv's. Click one you want to watch to get more details on it.
6. If indeed you want to see that one, go to the download box where it says "local" or "direct" or whatever, and click on it. (you'll need to be a member to download locally) You may recieve another donation page. Do the same as before to proceed.
7. A page will start up that says "your download will start in 10 seconds".
8. You wait for it to download and then you can watch it, give it stars, leave comments on the vid, or even an opinion.

Then, repeat for more results. ^_^ Let me know if that helped, or if you have any other questions. I'll be glad to help. Take Care.

Note, however, that not all videos will have links on this site (local or otherwise). It just depends on if the creator wanted to host the video here or elsewhere. Uploading the video isn't a requirement for cataloguing the video, after all.
... yea ...
