In my Firefox browser, the Firefox “Plugin Finder Service” tells me “No suitable plugins were found”. I thought it must be pretty dense of the contributers to submit something to an open source project in a semi-proprietary format. Then I looked at the submittal guidelines. Kind of seems that it would have made more sense to require the ads to be in a universally playable format, like AVI or MPEG-2. This is truly ridiculous and really unfair to financial contributers (me) and to the artistic contributers whose work is not readily viewable in some Firefox browsers. I think you should seriously consider converting the format of these videos. I can’t actually view the Firefox ads in Firefox on my Suse Linux laptop.

Just happen to see a link at one of those funny sites. How many more fans have not been allowed to get creative simply because we were never notified. What a loss. Just an observation.
