Whoa! Considering I basically emulated a bunch of the features of CD-Media when I wrote the photo gallery PHP/MySQL backend for the team228.org website (except that I use a "Flickr set"-like sorting method), that would be awesome. I even added tags to our photo galleries. We certainly have the storage space and bandwidth to handle hosting all our team photos.

As for a CD-Video option, what about the feasibility of using FLV encoded video with an embedded Flash Video player like FlowPlayer? While the transcoding from WMV/MOV to FLV may be server intensive as a "direct upload video to ChiefDelphi" option, there might be an easy way to use a YouTube/Google Video FLV stream copied to CD's server and plug that into the FlowPlayer embedded on ChiefDelphi. As long someone had Flash installed in their browser and CD had the storage space to host the videos, then you'd be able to watch it.
