Frequently asked questions

Why Can't I Watch The Video's?

You are required to register an account with our site to have access to our library. Registration can be done through Twitter, Facebook or using your E Mail address and is only required once. Once registration is approved you will be granted access to view all of our free content.



I subscribed at the bottom of the site and still can't watch - why?

Subscribing to the "Exclusive Content" at the bottom of each page is a seperate registration and does not grant access to the video's. This is for Pride London Network to reach out to with promotions, news and other "exclusive content" offered from our partners and content creators. Subscribers recieve this information and access where others will not.



Is there a limit to how many hours or videos I can watch?

There are no limits! Watch when you want, how you want & how often you want with no restrictions!



How do I upload my content?

I don't have a Content Creator Agreement - Can I still upload content?

Yes! We are seeking to shine a light on everyone in our community and we encourage you to show us and the World your best! This may mean that you don't have a plan to create an on-going program and would just like to shine with a performance - we love that! Content Creator agreements are generated for creators seeking to make content on a regular basis.



What are the requirements for my content?

Video should be recording in Landscape mode (sideways) on Phones and should be at 1080p resolution or higher (most phones offer this or 4K). Audio should be 320kbs (CD quality) - we suggest a direct audio line feed into a mixer or computer to ensure the best audio sound.

Will I be Paid?

I have a compliment, idea or suggestion for your host how do I reach them?

All I see is a White screen on the Upload page - why?

Gmail is free and can be used for the sole purpose of uploading content to us. You may be required to log out and back in, hitting your refresh button once doing so to see the screen properly.



How Can I Make Money?

There are a number of ways to make additional income. Subscribtions to your channel can be created to create something similar to users paying to access either parts or all of your show(s). You can offer additional paid content including but not limited to event tickets, merchandise, music, video's, art, zines, pdf documents, cameo style video's, shout outs and anything else you can think of and we can agree to (legally!) The page that showcases you can be designed to feature you how you want! When you provide entertainment or education (or both) to our audience you are not only reaching our community in the best way and safest way possible but you are also providing an ability to place yourself in markets you may not have considered in the past. As a regular contributer you can access (various levels) of analytics and have one on one chats with us to help you improve your presence on the site.
