We don't have anything like that set up yet. We initially planned it but could only get it to the point of a short paragraph since there aren't many guidelines.
Perhaps we'll add something when we restructure that page a bit to accommodate more search options.
What if someone wanted to post a film in the forum without submitting to the directory?
Is that something people are interested in doing? Generally on BF we got more films submitted to the directory than posted in the forums.

No problem. I did find out you guys don't allow stikfas animations. 
Didn't know that before.
I did ask about the Stickfas when the directory went online, but apparently I was the only staff member who thought it would be OK to have Stickfas in the directory, maybe it's because I'm the only one with a Stickfa animation.
No worries, I just didn't see that written anywhere.
The original site was 'any' plastic toy so I just assumed likewise. Not that this is a big deal. I don't think anyone other than me is uploading other toy animations... except for that one guy that was doing playmobil stuff. I forget who that was.
Smeagol -- someone would post to the forum if it's their first film that might be a very low standard. Like, WMM .5 FPS Star Wars stormtrooper comedy leggo muvvey olol
Yeah, that just seems like such a rare circumstance, and it doesn't hurt anything to have it in the directory as far as I can tell. Honestly, low quality movies don't take long to process, since we rarely write review for them.
Regarding stikfas, the concern was that they're not really building toys (more like action figures than LEGO) and they have a greater range of movement - meaning that they would have a huge advantage in the animation category. If you made a movie using a combination of LEGO and stikfas (more than just a base plate 
) then it'd be considered. Since we have an "Other Films" forum, there's now a better venue for sharing non-brickfilms here than in the past.
I guess it's not mentioned, except for the front page stating that our films are made with 'building block toys.' It seemed very borderline when we discussed it, we figured any few stika films that accidentally were submitted can always be moved to the right forum.
The film submission works a treat but I did find that submitting a forum link only works in FireFox and not IE.
Keep up the good work people.
Question: What if I dont Have a Youtube account and I want to share a video From Windows Media Player.
Upload it to somewhere like mediafire, then put the download link in the links when submitting.
When i submit a film, it doesn't get to the directory, yet i don't get a rejection email. 
No-one does. That's just the way it is.
Maybe it hasnt been reviewed yet?
No, cos i got a rejection email when i submitted my test film by mistake.
Can we have a link to the film in question please?
A link to the Directory page.
