I store all of the LBT video's on my computer but I encrypt them so no one else knows what they are or how to open them.  Allthey know is there is a huge compressed archive on my computer which is password protected, takes up nearly thirty gig's, and is called Austin's School Work LOL

Why would I want to waste space storing video on my computer when I can get better quality off my dvd copies?  :huh:  If its about embarassment, hide the dvds but use that space to find new music or maybe some older animation films or something that can't be found on dvd yet.

firstly, i don't have a computer and im defenitely not putting the movies on my parents computer and secondly, like petrie said, i just hide the dvds and if i want, i could just watch them on the computer as well.

I like how you hid the videos though, :lol school work :lol

my DVDs are pretty obvious to all my friends, they're on the same shelf as my video games :p

I have them on my computer because I have a better stereo on my computer, and I can listen to them better from my bed :p which is set up perfectly for movies, also then if I fall asleep watching one (sleepy me) I don't have to worry about the DVD player I own burning up (it's not the best)

Sure do!
I ripped all 12 of my DVDs to my computer for quick, easy access.  This way if I need to quickly get screenshots, audio clips, etc. (where quality isn't top priority) I don't have to run into the other room and grab a DVD.  I don't normally watch my ripped versions for entertainment (that's what the DVD versions are for).  I use the ripped versions as a convenient resource.

That's all I have.  I threw away the originals to hide them.  I wish I would have saved them now, since my mom started liking LBT.  I use them for entertainment and for a resource.  They are especially helpful in creating animated gifs and for creating new avatars.

I don't have any LBT videos on my computer. There is no need to as I have the original DvDs of all the sequels.

throwing away isn't really hiding it's "disposing of the evidence" I'm surprised that they're still as expensive as they are :o

Don't you want to take snapshots and modify pictures, split and join videos?  Ya know, that sort of thing?

Right now I don't have the time and I never created an LBT music video or the like. If it comes to snapshots, it is perfectly possible to take them right from the DvD.

Once, I used a picture of littlefoot in lbt 8 and cropped the image so it didn't show anything but littlefoot, and I put him in the seat of a 1979 chevy truck.  It looked like he was driving!  It was so cool.  Unfortunatly, The hard disk I had it on crashed and I was unable to recover the file.  I plan to make it again though once I get photoshop reinstalled on my new hard drive.  I couldn't have done it without those LBT vids on my computer.

I currently have the original LBT, 6-12, 14 of the Eps on the TV Series and the 30 other vids I made myself that you all can see on either YouTube or FileFront.

If I end up having trouble getting 2-5, I'll take whatever you guys can give me.

All this material will be important for my upcoming, fanmade music vid I have planned.

There's only one other thing I'll need, it is unrelated to LBT and I know where to get it. ;)

Well, that's it for me. :)

My family is fully aware of my LBT passion. Especially since I got that armful of plushes while we were shopping at a Family Dollar store. I couldn't even get past the clerk without a comment. :wow

That's good. I really think LBT fans can make their lives happier if they come out of the hiding, not prancing about with a mark reading "I love LBT" but allowing anyone to know who wants to know. Trying to hide it from the own family would be particularly frustrating I suppose.

I don't really care what people think about me liking Land Before Time. My family knows about it and so does a section of people that live on the block I live at. I am not bothered at all. It just a cartoon that people are real fans of, there fans of so many things so Land Before Time shouldn't be any different. Everyone has their likes and dislikes, shouldn't pick on thoses that like it for the fun of it, that just wrong, what if you picked on their favioute thing, they wouldn't like it so they should really think on that and see how the other feels.

For the record, I voted "yes" in the poll because of those episodes I downloaded.
