I did e-mail you the info already.

I just wanted to know when you got the file so I can remove it from my website. I rotate my videos.

Well i don't know what happened, but i never got the email :( , if you could please send it to me again, or post it in here, my email is where_next@yahoo.com.

As you see i never got your vid info the first time you sent it, and i never received your info when i asked you to send it again. So since i never received your info i was unable to enter you in the contest. Sorry

So you need to check what is happening to your e-mail. Obviouslly there was a problem with it. You should have let me know you didn't get it. :(

i posted that i didn't get it after you sent it the first time, but how was i suppose to let you know i didn't get it the second time, when you never let me know that you sent it again??? I believe your submission was the only one with that problem though, everybody elses email came in just fine. It's also why when i asked you to send it again, i mentioned posting the info for it in here.

Well, it plays for me, I could reencode it as something else for you. (Better if the original author has a higher quality file to reencode from of course..)

But more importantly (to me anyway):
WhereNext, your site it pretty broken for me. The text stays in place (in relation to something, not absolute positions though) no matter what size and font it's displayed as, so often much of it isn't readable. (I doubt I have the font you try to use.) You can probably see it yourself if you play with the font size. (I assume you can in your browser, if not you can download a mozilla based browser and look at it there.)

Here are two small examples:

This is with small fonts, which I think takes about as much space as was intended (this is just a guess though), layout is pretty broken in moz:

And this is with a big enough font that nothing is too high up (the first one is readable, but not in the picture):

well, ihave tested all the files and they work fine for me, if you have problems playing certain files, try updating your codecs.

As far as the site showing up looking wrong, if you select medium for tyrext size the site should show up fine, in I.E. iuse medium text size and the site shows up fine.

First, I don't use IE, and can't use IE (don't run windows, don't run macos), and even if I could I wouldn't want to with its horrible security track record.

Second, even for those who do use IE, not all of them will have be able to read small text. It's not impossible, or even hard, to design a site that will be readable regardless of font size. (And furter, I assure you there is no font size where the whole site is readable in my browser, so to read a whole page I have to change the font size several times.)

Now, it is of course up to you to decide if you care about if these people can use your site, but please be aware that you are making it very hard for some people.
