Videos of Australia and New Zealand online (for those with broadband!)
Thanks Alan -- I'm planning a 2 month trip and your photos whetted my
appetite

I've made a couple of videos from my trips round New Zealand and
Australia -
bearing in mind that the source material was from a "stills" camera that
could do 20 second silent clips, I reckon they're not bad at all.
They really show what fun and beautiful places Aus and NZ are.
The movies are he

- 25Mb
http://www.digitaltoast.co.uk/travels/Aus/
- 9Mb
There are also large photo galleries:

At some point in the future I'll subtitle the videos to give a bit more
info
in the NZ one.
*Watching the video:
1: You need a fast PC, at least 500Mhz processor, otherwise it will run a
bit jerkily.
2: You need sound
3: You need Windows Media Player 9 (or something that can play the wm9
codec)
4: Broadband would help - if you are on a dial-up (or in any case), try
Getright from
http://www.getright.com/
- there's no spyware or anything in
it. Just install it, and then right-click the movie links and choose "save
as" (or "save target as") and save it to your hard drive before watching
it.
5: Enjoy!
