What format does it have? .AVI, .MPG, .MOV maybe?

Anyway, if I remember right, you can send video file to photobucket, and it automatically converts movie to flash-video format.

265 mb takes some time(depending on connection speed) to transfer to photobucket.

It is also possible to convert/recompress the video file by yourself, using some of the available video editor programs.

Chuck,

That is a real massive size, I don't think even youtube would take it.

All you can really do is get a video editor and compress it down to about 10% of original, you will lose quality a bit, and may even be a smaller display size. Even then it is still a bit large, and depending on your upload speed could take ages, if a normal speed, around 4 hours.

I have a fast upload rate and that would take me an hour, the original, 10 hours.

The only reasonable way to do it is to put it onto your personal webspace (if you have any), give a link to it, and let people watch it from there.
