Wow, that's hilarious! Thanks for telling the story and posting the link, Garret! Youtube is low quality, true... but it's better than nothing. That reminds me, I wanted to ask - does anyone know of any good free program that can compress video (ex. AVI) files? For example, let's say I want to compress a 640x480 109meg AVI file to a 320x240, 100meg (max) AVI file.

Yes, I do want to upload something to youtube... it's loosely related to "Cobbler" (well, in a roundabout way, anyway - still, it may interest animation fans) and I want it to have the best possible quality on Youtube. I HAVE seen some good-quality films on Youtube, and would like to do the same.
