That link doesn't work for me either but if I click through from the UKB home page it takes me to this link which works fine.

Had another thought with regards to the Vimeo UKBouldering.

It seems myself and a few others regularly stick videos into the Quality Bouldering/Chuffing thread that are hosted on Vimeo.

How about having a thread in a similar vein to the Blog Piles that simply suck in the RSS feed for the new UKBouldering : Pink Anasazi thus negating the need to do so.

Pros :

Less 'work' for users to get videos embedded with UKB (I've actually reduced the amount I do this of late anyway).
Simple to add videos to the Vimeo UKBouldering : Pink Anasazi group (assuming you are in that thread).
[Add what you think wold be a Pro here]

Cons :

It would lose the somewhat subjective Quality/Non-quality filtering (which personally I think is a bit whack anyway and often reflects a level of self-deprecation as most users vids get stuck in the later which doesn't truely reflect their quality in my opinion).
It may result in 'spam' as there is currently no moderation applied to the videos added to the Vimeo group.

Just a thought.  I'm sure similar could be setup on YouTube.

GCW:
There IS moderation of the videos, subject entirely to my own opinion.  :guilty:

Having said that, if the vids were automatically sucked into UKB I can switch on the option of having to approve added videos before they are published.

No slight intended, and not something I've noticed, my apologies.

Fairy muff.  Just thinking of ways to lessen the burden on users (for want of a better phrase as its not that onerous, just mildly annoying having to remove the 's' from the URL or correct it).
