I went ahead and got the frapps movie maker and really like it, but I can't figure out how to email the movie files. Even the small 30 second files come back saying file is to large. I have mailed lots of other non-frapps movie files in the past that were considerably larger. So anyone know what might be up? I have tried saving file to documents and mailing from there. No go. Confused

Zip it and send it http://www.sendspace.com/ for download or just post it a youtube.

But radarman, I can't send the files anywhere. I go into my computer drive/c where the films are stored in my frapps files, right click and a window opens that asks me what to do with file. I click send to: and it opens outlook express, installs the file into the attachment box. Then I click send and the attachment disapears and a dialogue box eventually opens that states file cannot be sent it is too large. It won't even send a 10 second film? So I don't know how I can send it to sendspace.com. I loaded sendspace and tried fetching the file through send space and that doesn't work either. There's gotta be an easier way to do this? No?

Check the little box below the windows.
Click on "browse" and find the zip of your video.
Hit upload, when it finishes it'll give you a URL that you can copy and paste, that's what you use for people to download it from.

I registered to sendspace to give it a try. When I hit the browse button I go into my fraps files and clicked on a zipped film of 43 seconds long. Sendspace indicated 1 hour and 10 minutes to upload. That can't be right? I also tried uploading an unzipped file with same results. Whats up with the long uploads? It's kinda worthless if it takes that long.

It doesn't matter how long or short the video is how many mb is it.
If it's unusually large it'll take time.
That's a free site, if you want to pay you can get a better site.
Don't forget, you may have lighting fast broadband but the upstream is always very low and slow.
Take a upload and download speed test and I bet the upload will be about 1/3mb per second.

It won't necessarily upload faster, your upload speed is slow so that takes time.
It about 1 tenth the speed you have to download..
