Re: How can you post a small video in the forums?
You can post small animations, but you can't post thirty second videos or something like that.
I have no idea how to do the animations, though...

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

That's what I meant by 'video'.

You can take ALL the frames in the video and compile it into a gif and post it as an animated gif on the forums. Other then that you must post a link to the video.

You do it the same way as pictures, I think. Instead of uploading an image, I think you upload some animation thing.
I've never tried to post animations, so I might be wrong.

Re: How can you post a small video in the forums?
You can't embed videos in the Scratch Forums, but you can convert one to an animated gif and use that.
To convert video to animated gif:
http://zamzar.com/
http://www.youconvertit.com/
http://www.mediaconverter.org/
To host large gifs:
http://imagebeast.net/
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

Something went wrong... when I tried to upload it, this message popped up:
Image upload failed
Upload failed for Butterfly.GIF with error: Invalid file type

Re: How can you post a small video in the forums?
Hmmm.... that's weird. Which one of the sites did you use to convert the video? You might try using a different one. I'm not sure what is causing that, and I've never really used those websites myself. ^^"

No, you can't. 
But you can convert videos into animated images and post that.

Animated gifs automatically play themselves when put in as an image on the Scratch forums.
