Re: Help needed for launch video and progress so far

 

I think the "elementary OS Luna" should stay a little bit longer then a
second on the screen, people who don't know what this is can't barely read
and memorize the name in that short duration.

You may publish the videos you want to have re-recorded for everyone, that
will likely give you more results.
