Some of the FTP info has changed. Here is the new info:

Server: ftp.activdns.com
Username: rwarren@hydradv.com
Password: church

Please do not delete existing files or folders. Just drop your .mov (should be 20megs or less) film file into the default main folder. If there are any questions please speak up.

Make sure you just include the name of your film as the file name. Do not include your name so we can keep it fair.

PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THIS FREE SERVICE

maybe I'm wrong. I don't do this very often. When I get to the FTP site, there is no prompt for username or password. The only thing there is a folder that says "Incoming". I double click on it and it takes me to another folder. I tried to drag the QT document into the window and it automaticvally opened the movie and started playing it. Did the FTP take the movie?. There is no way for me to know.

Please advise.

Sounds like you're trying to upload through a browser. No worky: you need an FTP program. PM me if you have continued problems & let me know what platform you're on.

Alright I've been getting a lot of questions on how to download upload, so here is a quick method I use. Note this is only for PC. I'm not sure what programs there are for mac users...

I primarily use a program called FlashFXP for most of my FTPing since it takes care of most of my FTPing needs.

Simply DL the program from here: http://flashfxp.com/download.php

Install

Run the program

Hit F8

Enter Kyles info into the right fields:
Server: ftp.activdns.com *
Username: rwarren@hydradv.com *
Password: church
Port: 21

Click Connect, and voila, you should now see movie files.

Now you'll notice there are 2 lightening bolts on the interface(they do the same as the F8 button when clicked). This is because FXPing allows you to transfer either from FTP to FTP or your computer to FTP. On the side that does not have the FTP running, click the little Globe/Computer icon. You should see your computer in the FlashFXP directory. You can browse your computer and drag files to either upload or download.

Hope this helps.

I'd say wait a few hours. It's only 11:00 a.m. where I am, so there might be some west-coasters who still want to enter...

I imagine they'll be linked to the final "vote here" thread, but that's just the way I would do it. 8)

The movies were erased from the link, you can see them in the screengrab section.

Are these available anywhere? I'd love to see them -- maybe post in grabs/clips now that the contest is over???
