Hi Monica,
seems as if this issue is no longer one. I downloaded a few ZIP-files today without getting an error. Thanks for your quick reply .. if only you would appear in more picture series ... but that's not a real issue ... at least none to be discussed here ;-).
Cheers,
Eddie

Monica already changed something 2 days ago but I wasn't able to double-check if everything works. I'll give it a try tomorrow. Seems as if I was very lazy!
Cheers,
Smut

Dimensions are a tricky thing right now because so many people have different size monitors. 640x480 used to be ideal because everyone had 4:3 monitors and the resolution was not all that high say 800x600. But now many 4:3 monitors feature resolutions of 1600x1200 and some higher.
Also, many people have switched to widescreen, so now the aspect ratio is in question. It is all compromise at this point.
Now the resolution to use. The higher the better, at least for the highest option you would offer. ideally you would offer an HD option and retain something close to you current. 1.5 to 2 MBit video is pretty easy to play and even people with lighter, older machines can enjoy that. But many of us have more modern computers that can easily hand very high bit rates. Of course, it is important that any increase in bit rate is utilized close to its full potential. It is easy to make a video 6 MBit from 1 Mbit, but it will look no better.
A few sites have gone as high as a 1440 resolution. These videos look phenomenal but can be practically impossible to play if the user does not have reasonable video capacity. Ideally i would look into resolutions of 1280x720 for your higher end at this point. Of course you camera must be able to shoot this. Most computers can play this without much issue and those of us with good video ability would still be able skip around the video fairly easily.
Of course, none of this means anything without using decent cameras and video compression. Being able to offer beautiful videos costs money, but that is only a one time payment. Well, there is storage and bandwidth costs. But, if bandwidth becomes and issue it is a blessing at the same time because that means your spectacular videos have attracted more members and more revenue. Besides, sites like TBP have search options for video quality, and it would be great for you if your site where to show up under the HD listing.
I am certainly glad to be helpful to you. If my suggestion prove fruitful for you than it has helped you become successful, and provides us with another good site to enjoy. Sounds like a win-win deal to me.

Have you considered increasing the bit rates on the videos. Many of us would call 1000 KBit the bare minimum for new content, and the 512 and 256 just fluff. It would be much more appealing if you offered good videos in the 3000 KBit range.
A site can not be built under the assumption that people are still using dial up. While it is nice for those with minimal internet connections and storage space, it is a deterrent for those of us with moderate connections and plenty of storage. I would gladly wait 3 times as long for a 3000 KBit video and would enjoy it 100 times more.
For a softcore site I believe video quality is a paramount issue. Those kind of videos are not showing us much, which is fine, but I better be able to everything that is being shown.

A webmaster actually recommending holding off on joining until more videos can be posted. Either it is insane or pure genius! Most people want the revenue to start flowing on smaller sites to help the site grow, where as you taking the honest and concerning approach.
You certainly get point from me for being honest enough, or smart enough, to recommend that a video fan hold off on joining so that he will not be disappointed. Two good things here, Cybertoad does not feel ripped off when he find a limited number of videos, and you do not have to deal with an unhappy customer. Even better for you, you make yourself look wonderful on this site, and at the same time avoided a respected PU telling us of the video shortcomings in the form of disappointment.
We PUs like you already, and please do keep us posted about an influx of videos. Also, can you tell us what the dimensions and bit rates will be for your videos?

Thanks; your reply has indeed reduced my initial suspicions, but as you have said, we'll see how it goes later.
