that will incur more bandwidth when a link will prevent it.

I assume you mean embed rather than put youtube videos in your bed.

Actually, I think it only starts loading the video when the play button is pressed, so in actual fact it could be a nifty feature.

Yeah, it streams, but I think benjamin is right. It doesnt transfer anything except the first image, then when you hit play it starts to stream, meaning it doesnt suck up your bandwidth (or YouTubes) until someone clicks mr play.

*Pats Soapy on the back and hugs him* No need to cry, its going to be alright...

Whilst on the subject of requests, personally I think a portfolio option would be a good idea, underneath your username you have a link to a part of your profile where you post your game and art works, similar to Garagegames or CGTalk put together, with the ability to comment on people's work.
