What do you guys think? Is it better if only images are encouraged in the tagline and the video is in the full article? Am I just over-thinking this?
As for the plugin blocking - that's soon to be a problem for desktop users as well as far as I know all plugins will need to be click to activate soonish so all videos will be the same - it's up to the browser devs to make the placeholder a little less rubbish I guess?
The problem I keep having is submitters completely leaving out content from tagline in the main article so I have to copy it over heh - I need to note that on the submission section that it's not included in the article itself when viewing in full.

I use Firefox with NoScript + plugins.click_to_play=true, so I have to click on videos everytime anyway.
(I also recently removed Flash and am trying to see how well I can live without it. I'm happy to report that most of the videos posted on GoL so far seem to work. :))
Doesn't matter on the article itself though.

Back on topic though: Should we maybe also have a place-holder image associated with posts that have no media of their own?
EDIT: Found this old concept image from before the new site went live. Here's the link.
Bearing in mind all the uploaded images for taglines already, they are included in main posts I would then have to go through and re-do all of them as well.
First thing I want to do from now though is only have images on the home page, not videos that will help towards cleaning the look up.
It works for images and videos putting them to the right :).
We should come up with default images for every category if people don't include an image or video in the post.
I also need to make sure the tagline info for submitters and admins makes sense with the changes and make sure it works on previews.
Edit again > Previews sorted out for user news submission but not yet for editors and admins.
It should help it all look a bit more pro since we won't now have images and videos all over the place on the home page.
Thanks for the suggestions as always :)

Btw, how does the submission page work now? It says any image/video we put there will be the tagline's side image. But what if we link two images, or an image and a video?
And what about the maximum image size? Does the form reject larger images?
