Yes, you can name it whatever you like or give it whatever URL you want. No, you cannot currently integrate it with vBulletin or any forum system for that matter.

thanks for the reply ;)
i can link it from my forums??
also do i get admin rights, and able to promote staff to moderate it???
will i have a blank start, as i only want 1 sort of topical videos upload ( no porn )
just 1 specialised subject that interests me, and my users
wot is the average size server needed for this please
would this be enough, and im also running vbulliten too, ;-

Memory (RAM) 2 GB
Disk space 160 GB , or 250 GB
Connection 100 Mbit
Bandwidth 3200 GB , or 3200 GB

Yes, you can link to your site from your forum. You will just have to have two registrations. When vShare 2.7 comes out, I actually plan to integrate it into SWF forum for my own site.

As for the site, yes, it will be blank with the default skin (similar to the vShare demo). You can have whatever type of videos that you want on your site. It's your choice. The site has an admin panel. However, there is only one admin account. You cannot have moderators or multiple administrators.

As for your specs, those specs should be fine.

brilliant thanks ;)
can vShare be made to take a no sign up from a forum like vbulliten, can a custom script be added??
wot im hoping for is that my users who joins my forums get a auto membership to there own vid area
where they can then customise there own areas, and get reputations by uploading vids on there skills

What you are wanting to do can probably be done. From vBulletin, considering that it does not have an encrypted source, you can modify vBulletin to also register the person in vShare. People could then link to their profiles that they have in your vShare site, which would list any videos that they have uploaded. People can rate the videos on vShare and, in turn, can give reputation points in vBulletin for that particular user.

The biggest problem that you are going to run into with vShare (as it exists today) is that the source code is encrypted and cannot be modified. This limits what all you can add into or modify in vShare. The next version of vShare is supposed to be open source, which will allow for an unlimited amount of modifications and add-ons for it.

also can i add my own themes, and skins ( style sheets ) to make it look how i want???

wen will the open source be ready to go please???
is it long in the waiting for the release

In terms of the changing being easy to do, if you do not have any experience in doing those types of modifications, no it will not be easy. It's not real difficult for someone who has experience, however. As for the new version of vShare, we do not have a date as to when it will be available yet as the developers have not specified when it will be ready.

no im a total noob on all of this stuff, though i do manage some how lol ;)
