YTMND flash preloader
This gif probably took longer to make than actually changing the preloader itself

... like I said, YTMND is evolving. I think max and I would both be at least a little bit interested in what the users think about going from the traditional YTMND medium (browser-based .gif, .wav/.mp3) into a more accessible/portable format such as importing it entirely into Flash-based playback. PLEASE REPLY TO THIS THREAD WITH COMMENTS!

I see your point well and clear now. If it's currently impossible to show a percentage for the preloading of an image then I guess it won't come around for quite a while. Flash-based playback sounds like a monstrous job. Still, thanks for clearing it up for now. I look forward to seeing YTMND evolve.

I think Flash-based playback would be ok ONLY if users were still restricted to uploading GIFs and still images.

I agree with cooke. We don't need people uploading flash games here. I think the preloader is fine as is, though I think it could be improved with a simple "Play" button to make sure it syncs properly and plays when you want it to.

Yeah, if people were able to upload flash then it'd ruin the whole notion of YTMND

I should be more specific: being able to upload .swf or movies will never happen. Unless max hasn't told me something.

If all we're doing is converting the picture/sound/text format into a flash file that can display progress, it'd be great. That said, I'd still like the limitation to be placed there. YTMND is not the place for flash movies or games, there are other sites on the net for that. Also, it sounds like it would be quite a chore... If it's easy, great. If not... I think there are more productive ways to spend programming time with YTMND.

i hope it doesnt turn into all flash, YTMND as a specific medium doesnt exist anywhere else ( i think?) and like cooke+Btape sed, fi we went all flash, we'd lose our particualrity as creators within this medium. so not just for that reason it should stay as is in form, but the production/delivery will probably always be changin/improving.

a fat lot of the content here is same as the rest of the internets, but theres also a lot of ytmnd-specific work, and really original uses of the form, and thats stuff that doenst translate well to other sites/media and probably couldnt have been made any other way. that's why utube/newgrounds can get boring, cause there's no given form to challenge/work through- their material is similar to other stuff in both content and form, because our process is sortof 'standalone', we can have these kinds of . . .

Wouldn't making two connections with one YTMND double the server load and stuff? And make max need to buy another server?

I wish max would edit the site creator to not allow gifs for a week. I mean, yeah, I've made many sites with animated gifs, but it would still be both hilarious and interesting to see what people did.

I was at my parents' house for a week and a half on vacation just recently, and I just wish there was something that would make ytmnd not hate dial-up. Although, I don't blame it. I hate dial-up, personally. Also, "Aye."

Aye. Well, I think we have enough votes. SO, who gets to pester max into looking at this? Oh, whatever. I will.
