Hi everyone,

As you know the compression types indicated in the rules is MOV, however I will also accept and prefer DivX.

I have been adding the numbers up and uncompressed MOV will likely be about 1GB. 15 competitors x 1GB x 15 downloads by 6 judges = A lot of bandwith! I have emailed my host asking for a fast pipe and some space to host all this for a few days so I will be posting more about this shortly.

Anything you can do to reduce your file size, while still maintaining quality is greatly appreciated!

If you have any questions or concerns, please post them here. Let me know also how big your file sizes are looking if you can.
