Post by galaxian » Tue Mar 24, 2026 1:47 pm

Since Postimage won't allow short video and I am getting an:

"You can’t post image, email or url links that are external to this domain. Please remove ---"

error when putting external link - how to post short videos and what is the best hosting?

I think your problem was your 0 post count, that also stops people from posting images.
Since you have posted here, try again ;)

Thanks - but what about videos? Is there any solution for nsfw videos? MP4 format ;)

If you are cheap like me and don't want to pay for a video hosting service, do what I do and convert your mp4 file into a gif format. You can then upload the gif file to this forum using the "Add image to post" button. This forum accepts gif files up to a size limit of 30 Mb. The conversion program I use is a freeware download called "ScreenToGif".

Oh - I got my hands on some AI slop generator with sound, so I would love to stick with mp4 format. And the quality is to nice for a gif, making the gif very big.

Well then looks like going the "uploading to paid video hosting site" route and pasting the URL's on the forum.
