A Wetpaint Site | TV Fandex 100

2/17 release - Video Gallery

Video Gallery

After seeing countless YouTube videos added to pages we decided to make Videos a major destination.

From the new Video Gallery, you can easily search and add YouTube videos to your heart’s content. Moderators and up can even ‘feature’ certain videos so they are prominently displayed at the top of the video gallery.

This puts you in the driver’s seat to make sure the right content is front and center. Just like photos, video descriptions and tags can be added or easily edited by others.

2/17/09 - release - Wetpaint Central

On each video detail page you’ll find you can easily browse other featured videos or related videos. You define which videos are related by tagging your videos. Have lots of videos on your favorite TV actor? Not to worry, your Wetpaint site will automatically create links to them so you and other fans need not hunt around. Each video also includes threads so you can keep the conversation rolling. Checkout the screencast to learn more.

Video Gallery Descriptions vs. Photo Gallery Descriptions

I really like how you put the descriptions in the video gallery BELOW the video and allowed up to 5000 characters in the description. Any chance you will bring these enhancements to the photo gallery in the future? I don't like how the descriptions for photos are tucked over on the side and easily missed or overlooked when someone is browsing through the gallery. Also, I find the 255 character limit in the photo gallery to be pretty restrictive. I'm using WetPaint for educational purposes and would like my students to be able to write detailed descriptions and information to go along with content-area images and have that information appear directly below the photo as it does in the video gallery. Plus, it would be nice to have consistency in the layout of all the "galleries." Also, any thoughts on bringing albums (or maybe "channels"?) to the video gallery to group related content together?

Thanks!
