I prepared this massive manifesto - in a text message - to my dad, to convince him to clear a Vimeo and cubeupload account:

Regarding external website registrations

I'm having second thoughts about your offer for a Vimeo account. Optimizing videos using HandBrake has worked well enough, but a recent upload required me to reduce a video to very low quality and cut off a section at the end to get it under a file size. I also take your argument about having a place to share full-quality videos on-demand.

I'm also looking for an image uploading account. After the Scratch forums underwent some maintenance in which its main-site filter was merged with the forums, my preferred image uploading method - an exploit that allows the project asset uploading systems to be used as an image host - has stopped working. The Scratch forums already have a limited whitelist of usable image hosting websites, so I can't really use anything that doesn't require a registration. Cubeupload ( cubeupload.com ) is one of the few image hosts that remains usable, and I'd like to get an account there.

The second paragraph is a half-truth (I intend to use the cubeupload account for sharing images here, not on Scratch), but as I’ve heard, the best lies and cover stories have some truth to them!
