still up and running

BayGBM: Could you dig a little to find it? was it muscletube.com?

Swede!: lol ;D

bodybuilder1234: Simply2hot will be same script soon too.

No. the site is http://www.mymusclevideo.com/

They 'only' have 2530 videos.  Remember, bodybuilding has a relatively small audience and for fans serious enough to patronize the sport watching it is as important as the outcome of the contests.  Accordingly, the quality of the vids would be important if you want to do something new.  I think Repetrope and USA muscle have set the standard in that regard.  If your proposed site used High Definition Quicktime videos as opposed to Flash that might--just might--make it different enough to get noticed.

Check out the quality of these HD vids.  For the first two links scroll down and hit the blue HD 720p button (these links require that you have QT installed)

Again thanks for the information, I don't think I have the resources to have a Quicktime enabled page you need a lot of Size for that.
haha it's always funny how I'm so sure that I had a good idea and than i need to talk to a couple of people to pop that bouble over my head to get me back to the ground ;D
