Request: Multimedia section

I think MM should have a multimedia section to its own, where all Milan-related videos or audio are posted. Although currently, say, a Sheva video can be posted in the "players" section and goals can be posted in their respective matches thread; I think it will be more organized (and easier to find) if MM has its own multimedia section. Plus, members can request for videos there, maybe of a Milan video in the 80s or things like that.

its a good idea. im actually backing you up.

but.. its never gonna happen.. if i remember correctly, i did a similiar request a long time ago.. maybe this time itll materialize

The reason it didn't happen was we were thinking it would only contain very few threads ...organization is a good point eventhough I think video and audio should always be in a specific thread anyhow and not in the players thread for example.

I have no objection...will get back to you after I put it to the other mods and admin.

i cant put videos of the gols from the AC MILAN


i made very good videos



4.5 M or -

It doesn't have to be that way. With a separate forum for multimedia, a new thread could be opened for every new game we play. It would be a hell of a lot easier finding a certain game thread in this forum than browsing the 100+ pages of the goal videos thread IMO.

Just a thought!

Good point. We wont run out of threads. It might not be the most popular one (but then again the "Italian football" section has been quite dead for the past few weeks/months too) but its very useful.

Especially now that the football season will start, the multimedia should be constantly updated with Milan's matches goals every week...

and not to mention my exclusive rights to some exclusive match pictures



and it doesnt have to only be of Milan. it can be of football in general.

say somebody has a cool video of Ronaldinho for instance, they can share it in the new section!

My mind immediately goes to the technical aspects of doing something like that. Video takes up alot of space, it'll slow us down, etc. I'd rather encourage people to post links to places where video can be found than for us to try to handle it. Anyone with more technical knowledge than I have who can speak for or against doing this?

Its possible and we have space but I don't think we will be hosting videos on the server. I think the request is just for a separate forum?

yes. videos could be uploaded in in places like yousendit/uploadit etc (I'll do some research later, but uploading sites.. there are loads!)

pictures could also be stored at ImageShack.

and btw, regarding space, if we say link a picture from another site, does it take up space here? I dont think so. Hence, we should have the [ img ][ /img ] command

please.. I'll promise to do more avatars

That is my understanding as well. Just like the goals thread we have now, but a separate forum with a new thread per game, player, etc.

Say yes, mods!

there are loads of sites that allows us to upload videos from our HD and Host it there too, we will new need good moderators(like me) to look after that section, i too have posted many videos in the Bored Thread. and i think the section should'nt be confined to soccer only. funny videos, movies and MP3's should be included. make a minimum post rule for access that way you won't have idiots posting there. plus i guess there should also a place withing the multimedia sections where we can post pics and gifs.

Wouldnt making it non soccer a bit messy though? then people will start posting a lot of crap.

^^^^ thats why the minimum post norm, we can make this place more exciting, lets us express ourselves in more ways than one. It will be more fun trust me.
