I actually have no problems with any of those, and see where they could start to go very bad which is why it seems nipped in the bud from the start.

A still image is one thing - for example, violence - of a female warrior battling a dragon - to then see it die would be the further of the animation. A still image gives you the "idea of" for sure - it's a little different to see it fully "explained".

Nudity could go right into soft-core or even hard core in just a second is another example.

Hard drive space I'm sure is limited, so if everyone treated it like YouTube and uploaded every video they made of them just talking about life and last weekend's party, Rendo can kiss their hard drive space goodbye. 100MB video vs a 400KB still - how many stills can you upload before hitting the 100MB ceiling?

Even YouTube has a single format used - an H.264 variant. When you upload a Quicktime or WMV, it has to go into a cue to be re-encoded which takes time, and goes another generation down in quality. If you upload EXACTLY what they will be streaming from their servers, it's going to look exactly as you encoded it on your machine - no surprises, and no waiting.

If they have a standard template for a 640x480 viewing box, then the 800x600 video uploaded will need to be resized as well - which will affect quality even further.

Do you want the Animation Gallery to be clogged with advertising - which is my main worry about my trailer(s). Do you wanna see the HDs get taken up with ads, or keep the room for your artwork, the animation it took you so long to learn how to rig and move, and finally light so it looks like something you can present to a possible client - "Check out my Gallery to see if what I do is what you're looking for."

Yes, these are just my random thoughts associated with the TOS I read as well - they made sense to me, which is why there is no gripe whatsoever, and it helps me figure out how to re-encode my videos for how they will be displayed.

Hope this helps-
