Just in case you don't know, the Donut is the .org's cetral server where all the Local downloads come from. To use it you have to first enter your video into the catalog, then click on the "Upload" videos button in the members' menu. It'll take you from there.

If you want to host your own videos, you can always install linux and use the free servers available with it such as Apache. I have some of my videos available through a direct-link download on an ftp site I host on my personal machine, and am also using it as a central storage hub for a multi-editor project I am working on. Doing it this way takes a bit more time, but it lets people who aren't .org members or have only been .org members for less than 2 weeks to download your videos, and you are free to post multiple encodings and file sizes - something which I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to (or even able to) do with the Local download system.\

And I'm pretty sure 5 days doesn't make this a necropost.
