Posting iPhone video in thread

[Just Dropped In]

Perhaps it's operator error on my part, as I'm not tech savvy. Is it possible to load a short phone video as an attachment? The file ext is a .mov file from my iPhone. Does this have to be converted to a particular file for BITOG attachment posts? Thanks.

No, we don't allow video attachments, because we don't have enough storage for video.

You can host short clips for free on IMGUR and hotlink them.

To me, one of the biggest downsides of the forum format vs. FB/other social media platforms is this...no videos. Videos make it so much more robust and able to post things to help people better than written/pictures. I just use YouTube.
