gawd guys, wix sucks so much, it over complicates everything, after people use wix, they start to think flash is a mess and give flash designers like me a bad name!

@VG: I like the new design, and the restaurant's site is nice as well, especially for a first-time site.
@VG: I guess BASIC can be a good~ish starting point. It's so roundabout and boring to program with though. And you should have used the HTML5 video tags instead of YT.
And that's exactly why I didn't take that class.
Thanks Nyubis.
Also Re:HTML5, if you don't have Flash you don't deserve to watch the video anyway.
But it's HTML5! You can do all sorts of crazy things with it!
Not to mention you're relying on YT in this case to host the video, so if (for whatever reason) YT goes down. The video will be broken. And YT has been down several times before.
On the other hand, using HTML5 and hosting the video ourselves would take up our own bandwidth, and depending on how many people view the video that could end up being a lot.
Not that it's an issue since we have the unlimited bandwidth plan, but we still don't want our server slowing to a crawl.
And Youtube very rarely goes down, I don't think that's something to worry about.
I don't think that it'll be that much of an issue unless you suddenly got absolutely bombarded with views. But I suppose you're right.
I guess it just looks weird to have the basic YT player on a professional website. YT should offer customisable players or something.
"Very rarely" still means it does. You've always got to plan for the worse.
There's a glitch in v2p where the Learn bout Video 2 Web bar overlaps a bullet point. Ah well, i guess ill have to deal with it.
@WJUK:
Well I'd rather lose the <1% of the potential audience during a Youtube outage than a >50% loss (including the boss herself) with people who can't view HTML5 (damn IE). And using Flash as a fallback then pretty much defeats the purpose.
Although Youtube does let you get rid of their own control bar and let you control the player with Javascript if you wanted to. It just seems like too much work.
@Coolnesiac:
Wait, what? Browser, OS, and screenshot plz.
I guess so, I just like HTML5. Although I do like YT. Probably liked it better without the limit though (although that's been upped to 15 mins now, thankfully).
