The trailer just is basically a book jacket flap for the novel. It has some modified OP2 music and text. I do plan on releasing the novel in thirds, and hope to have it done before the end of July, and the editor position is available, but I sense that I'm the only one with free time here.

Trailer is online at my site, not here, due to file size. You can view it at outpostnovellas.cjb.net

Be sure to click on the link for the preview of War of 2400 I.

Note: Takes a long to load. If you have 56k, I do not recommend this for you, just try to download it at http://www.freewebz.com/philipu2001/noveltrailer.avi .

I just saw this and... duuuuuuhhhh... and... duuuuhhhh... sorry the incredible slow speed is... duuuhhh making me lag...

Now i remember why i dont like freewebz... duuuuhhh i get a maximum of 1kb per second on a 2,5 mbit connection... duuuhhh

But i have unlimited surf time so duuuuuhhh.... i'll just do something else in the meantime... duuuuhhh...

bye... duuuuhhhh...

Edit: Download finished ! ooooohh I like the music  :)
A powerpoint presentation would lower the size...

Actually, maybe I could convert the video to a gif, make the music an mp3, and have the trailer in this forum and/or my website.

I converted it into DivX and it became 1,3 mb
And yes a gif would make it very small as it would only be like 7-8 frames with pauses...

What would be a good format for the music?

An mp3 with low bitrate and hz... Any higher then the original only takes up space...

For even better compression Windows Media 9 could be used... But that requires that everyone has the WMA9 codec...

Uh, if someone could melt it down video into gif and audio into mp3, then you would not have to wait so long.

sounds like youre suggesting a narrated a fanfic and didnt compress it.

I doubt anything actually exists, its prolly just a proposal that will never happen.

why are all these ancient threads appearing back on the recent list?

I have a habit of replying to threads I see there without checking dates.

Can we just have it automatically lock anything that hasn't had a reply in a month?
Or something...
