Subject: Re: Feedback on New Bigger, Better Video Player
Ok I just found a problem.. I went to watch a widescreen vid.. well
guess what IT WAS SUPER WIDESCREEN!! THE VIDEO FRICKEN STRETCHED WAY
OUT!! It had the black bars on the top and bottom! so ya.. either let
us chose or scrap this dumb idea! I'm sick and tired of all the stupid
changes you guys are doing too.. like getting rid of who's vids they
are when in the favorites, number of ratings, number of videos someone
has from description, CHANGING THE THUMBNAILS to Widescreen so it CUTS
OFF part of it.. I could go on and on about all the stupid pointless
changes that have been done to make it harder and more confusing for
us to use and you guys redo things all the time it gets VERY
ANNOYING!! Some things are good but many are pathetic! OH AND GETTING
RID OF THE OPTION TO USE PHOTOS FROM ONLINE STORAGE SITES LIKE
PHOTOBUCKET FOR BACKGROUND IMAGES!!! WHAT WAS THE STUPID REASON BEHIND
THAT?! And the SIZE LIMIT on that is RIDICULOUSLY SMALL!!!

How about you guys like make the featured vids and embedded vids be
able to play in high quality! that would be a nice change..
