Re: New Zealand VEX
 

Anyone keen to start trading video footage and photos from regional?
I'm not sure what the best way to do this is, I was thinking of creating a Picasa album for you guys to browse and download what you like from there, sound good?

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

does Picasa do video too?

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

Not sure, possibly

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

Some one should just make a web site to make all the video available to download, im sure if someone talks to aciid hosting can be arranged.

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

Good idea. He sure has enough servers, too.
NZ VEX Website here we come?

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

It would be great if we had a nz vex/frc forum, with personal team pages, etc

maybe a wiki and coppermine gallery, etc

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

Or even just a website with a small forum on it if we want, with links to the Team Websites (when everyone gets them) and a photo/video gallery etc where people can just download or save what they want

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

CD is pretty busy, and heavily FRC-oriented, but you can do nearly everything you are asking for at vexforum.com, including posting unlimited pictures. Have you asked the Vexforum admins if they could host team Web pages?

Your New Zealand community is a little small to really create a community, and I'd hate to have you go off into your own small world. If the VRC world is going to achieve CD-like critical mass, I, for one, would like to see it center around one virtual on-line home, like Vexforum.

(Nothing at all against CD, by the way. It's just that as much as the admins open CD up to all robotics programs, it is first and foremost a home for FRC teams. That's OK, but it doesn't leave much for FTC or VRC teams.) (I <heart> CD.)

Re: New Zealand VEX
 

If I heard right at the regional there is going to be a New Zealand Vex website hosted under the Massey ME Website

http://seat.massey.ac.nz/vex/ seems to have basic info and is maybe where the Vex site will be?

I think it is meant to be up and running in a few weeks.


An email to Johan will probably be able to clear it up.

If we can we probably should try and keep NZ Vex info / forums together as much as possible so people don't miss things.

So if someone wants to setup a photo /video site on a temp basis maybe keep in mind moving to the Massey site later.

Or do people want to have multiple NZ Vex sites?
I am thinking maybe teams could have their own websites but have a single Vex forum point?
