General Questions : Uploading to Public Works Comics
_________________________________________________________________________________

Do I have to sign up to upload videos?

Yes you do.  Videos are attached to your profile, so you must sign up as a member to upload
videos.  But signing up and uploading videos is FREE, just like all of our services.
 

How long do my videos stay on Public Works Comics?

Videos stay on Public Works Comics permanently… Videos which violate the terms of use and have
been flagged may be taken down by Public Works Comics

How long can my video be?

There is a five minute (50 MB size) limit on the videos that you upload to Public Works Comics.

This is because viewers want to watch short videos.  And some viewers even think 5 Minutes is an
eternity. So keep it brief. 

What video file formats can I upload?

Public Works Comics accepts video files from most digital cameras and camcorders, in the .AVI, .MOV,
and .MPG file formats.

What's the best format to upload for high quality?

We recommend the MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format at 320x240 resolution with MP3 audio, at 30
frames per second. Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your
clips look better on Public Works Comics

How long will my video take to upload?

Depending on your connection speed and the size of the video, it can take anywhere from a few
minutes to several hours to upload a video.

Typically, if you have a high-speed internet connection you can expect the upload to take
somewhere between 1-3 minutes for every 1MB. But it’s going to be different for every user because
of the wide variety of connection speeds.

Is there a limit to how much I can upload?

Currently, the only limit is 50MB and 5 minutes in length per video.  We don't have any limit for the
number of videos you can upload at this time. So upload as many videos as you'd like—it's more
content for the whole Public Works Comics community to enjoy!
