Top 10, if it isn't there, I prefer amvs based off my fav animes.

I don't watch amvs for animes I don't like regardless of who says they're great, even if some think they ARE great.

Recommends threads based on type of amvs. I occasionally will try amvs based on style of amv.

I avoid done to death, thus I don't give a f**k if you've made the great Naruto thread ever made. Naruto isn't really all that great.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

Burn your video to a DVD and switch it into a case from your local video rental store. Better yet, road trip it, and do this at every rental store in the tristate area.

People need reasons to be an ass?

Anyway the answer is to not make AMVs that make the view wish they were never born (or, for those of us a bit more pragmatic, wish YOU were never born). You aren't quite there yet but will be with hard word, dedication, and in your case asking someone with a bit of talent to make the video for you and just slap your name on it.

Keep in mind that when you release your vid it'll be 'Hey, it's a video by no one I ever heard of and certainly no one I give a shit about'. So instead talk to us for awhile. That way when you release your vid peoples reactions will be 'Hey, it's a vid by uhhhh whatever your name is. I forgot it already. Damn, old age sucks. Whatever, guess I'll watch it or something.'

I want people to watch my videos and tell me what they think. I can't improve or learn if no one tells me what they see. I want other prespectives. True I might not agree but it's always not to see what others see.
Well, you've only given 1 opinion according to your profile...mixing in some opinion exchanges would probably help. Why should people give feedback about your vids if you aren't willing to do the same?

You actually mean to say there's one good video for every 1000 videos that get uploaded here then? There are 123.438 uploaded on this site right now.
Which means that there are 123 good videos uploaded. ABSOLUTELY! Not sarcastic at all. there are at least that many good videos on this site.

I agree that announcing your videos, socializing with other editors and using the opinion exchange will get your videos watched.
If they're consistently good or at least there is a good amount of improvement from video to video, people will remember and when they see a thread with your name on it next time, they'll check it out (this is not to say you should stop with advertising your videos, you can only do that once you have a really solid amount of groundwork already clocked with solid results). Now if they're consistently bad, people will also remember and possibly avoid watching future videos >_>

Go to #amv, suck everyone cocks'. And I mean everyone, there are no women on the internet. Then if they still won't post in your announcement thread, kill yourself.

Or you could, you know, make videos you want to watch and call it good. Because until you pick sources that don't suck I know I'll never want to watch them.
