Several Suggestions for Wegame.com
Hi there,
First off, I'm new here. Just got kicked out of Vimeo for "gameplay videos" and I think I might have found a home here. If you guys wanna kick me out, at least send me an email warning me first ok? :)
Anyway, here's a couple of suggestions for the website.
1. Have an estimated time left on the upload of the video. It'll help if you put the upload speed there too. The ultimate is of course, size of file, size uploaded so far, speed of transfer, and the percentage.
2. Have a batch uploader function on the website. People like me who get kicked out of a previous site have heaps of videos to upload. Doing them one at a time is a pain ... :D
3. Perhaps create "channels" or "collections" for us. You know, so that we can lump certain videos of the same ilk together in a collection. It makes it easier for us to link to a collection of a specific type of videos. Right now I'm thinking about my own needs (of course hee!) where I have both machinima and gameplay videos, and I'd like to separate them out into 2 distinct collections.
4. Allow tagging of videos, like how Youtube and other sites are doing.
5. Why a 20 minute limit? I would have thought a size limit would be enough, and you're already very generous with allowing 1GB files to be uploaded. Anyway if you encode a video properly, you can fit a 1 hour video into about 400MB, which is well under your 1GB limit.
Well, thanks for reading at least. Hope at least a few of these will be taken into consideration for future "features" of this website!
