Send me links to both and I'll fix it for you tonight after work... or (equally likely) someone else will see your comment and do it before I get near it.

The restrictions on hosts make more sense to me than the restriction on updating thumbnail images on your own posts before you're bronze... but really, these are small things. Come for the cool videos, the entertaining comments... stay for the petty restrictions and occasional bouts of bitter in-fighting. Hang on, that didn't come out right....

Here's an example of restrictions limiting "newbies": I have a dead video as one of my 3 submissions that I've found a replacement for and easily could fix, but I'm not at the right level so it's verboten. This makes me feel a little as if I'm a lower-class sifter even though all I want to do is correct one of my own posts.

Pretty sure a spambot would never self-repair a broken link that they submitted.

Likely one of those "special cases" that the VideoSift programmers didn't consider, and perfectly understandable if so. But it, and all the other grayed-out options, are a little limiting for "genuine" new members.

I'm from up north, eh?

I'm thinking a treaded snow shoveling variant would kick ass sales-wise.

Like wise.

Yes, i agree it was a bit long, that push might be worth it though!

A little too long, but was cute. Love the little push at the end.
