I don't have much of an opinion due to my lack of video making in recent years but since I like to keep up with you guys I'll certainly follow The Ark wherever it goes and I would contribute to a "Keep Ark Afloat" fund if necessary.

I think Ruth's arguments in favor of Vimeo are very persuasive, so I will go check it out later and return with an opinion on it. I have visited it before and didn't find it very user-friendly and I didn't sense much in the way of community there. But I will look deeper.<br />
<br />
But I'm also persuaded by Syd's "Simply disband :o( <--please, no." I feel that deeply. I'm very fond of this place, even with its low views and low activity. Under Syd's influence, it's been a wonderful, creative,…

Heh- good to hear your thoughts on it, Doug.<br />
<br />
I also looked to Vimeo as an option a couple of years ago and didn't find much of a community "feel" there but the staff were incredibly friendly and the whole feel of the place seemed cool.<br />
<br />
I created a group called "The Vloggerhood" at that time and to my surprise (in my absence), that group has grown to about 70 members- lol.<br />
<br />
There's some really fun channels and groups that pose creative challenges, kind of like Videolympics.<br />

Fellow Arkians..we can do this at another site such as Vimeo. We can have our own group, but no no one has responsibility for the whole enchilada. Running a site such as this is a HUGE RESPONSIBILITY.<br />
<br />
I KNOW how much responsibility Syd bears--I always feel guilt because I don't step up to take some of it away!! If we raise $500 this year, then there's NEXT year. It's an ongoing process. Annually.<br />

Rather than close it down, we can gently migrate it elsewhere. Truth is, there are precious few of us that participate to the extent that we did at LV. I got this little thrill of excitement when I visited Vimeo. Those awesome filmmakers such as Syd, Peter, Bruce, Amy, Sara (sorry if I left anyone out)...they would get SO MUCH stimulation from a site such as Vimeo. And feedback! How many positive comments can we have from the same 5 people?!<br />
<br />
I LOVE the concept of the Ark. You know I do. I've been here since moment one. But we did this because LV--the way we knew it--ended. It was stated to be a "stopgap" from the start. But to go to the trouble to produce a video to get 12 views? No motivation there :-( Even if we raise the $500, I hate to say it, but we're all exhibitionists to a certain extent, right? Otherwise we wouldn't do it. At least we'd have audience there. One of my greatest joys at LV was my little following. Many of you had MASSIVE followings, so I know you know what I'm talking about.<br />
<br />
Anyway, it was the World Cup finals today and I had people over and I've had 3 vodka drinks, so I'm rambling. But I would like to see us move to Vimeo, keep our core group intact, and leave the Ark open enough to direct people there. It's not like they're pounding on our doors to get in here and I honestly think we'd attract some of the "oldies but goodies" on a site such as Vimeo.<br />
