Well, I recently got my diamond, which means I get to create my own little corner here at the sift. I'm assuming channel creation is still broken, but once it's fixed I'd like to be ready with an idea. That's where you guys come in -- as has become customary at this point, I've got a few different ideas which I'd like to run by everyone:



Short -- This one's pretty obvious (30 seconds or less); there's been some discussion lately as to whether or not a channel like this is needed. Blankfist came up with the idea first, so if he wants it he's got first dibs, obviously.

Trailers -- a channel just for movie trailers, new and old, classic and not-so-classic.

Short Films -- This wouldn't just be for short films per se, but for any video which attempts to tell a story from start to finish, so, for example, certain music videos or even comedy sketches might be able to find a home here.

Classic animation -- I know there's already an animation channel, but I think this would complement it quite nicely. Any cartoon from the golden age of animation (roughly the beginning of the sound era to the mid-to-late '60s) would be welcome here. No TV animation allowed! Good stuff only (ie. Looney Tunes, Disney, Fleischer, MGM, etc.). There are a lot of golden age cartoons on the sift, and this would be a good home for them.

Chimps! -- A channel just for the best and most hilarious members of the animal kingdom, chimps! I'm almost reluctant to start this one, because the sheer disproportionate awesomeness of this channel might just cause the entire sift to implode. Don't ask me how.

So there you go! Let me know what you guys think. Oh, and that last channel is a joke.

Or is it??
