Show us your Mug!
If you use ExpressionEngine in your business, organization or for personal use, we want to hear why, and we want to see your face and hear your voice when you tell us!
Smile big, take a deep breath, and in 2 minutes or less, tell us why you choose ExpressionEngine. We'll add your video and a link back to your website as part of a new section of the ExpressionEngine Showcase. Selected video testimonials may also be used in future promotional content by EllisLab.
You can submit your video using the form below (must be logged in to view it).

Video Requirements
In order for your video to be used it must meet the following requirements:
Content Requirements:
- Your video must answer the question "Why did you choose ExpressionEngine?"
- Identify yourself: say your first name and where you are from.
- Keep your video clean and family appropriate.
- Be timely: Your video should be at least 30 seconds long but less than 2 minutes in length; we mean it!
- Only one video entry per person (but everyone on your team is welcome to create one).
- We will not link to sites with "Adult" oriented content.
Technical requirements:
- Video can be as high-quality as you like. HD is just fine.
- Video should not be less-than 425x344, the standard size for YouTube.
- We can work with just about any video format available. If we can't use your video, we'll let you know and ask that you use a different format.
- Speak up: make sure your audio is not too soft or distorted.
- The download link should enable us to download your video, not just view it online.
Creative Considerations:
- Think big: your
mugface should be prominently featured at some point in the video. - Be creative! Talking too boring? Sing! Rap! Recite poetry. Then again, talking may be your style.
- Make sure that your message is clear. You may understand your abstract, silent film, Avant-garde visual ode to ExpressionEngine but a general audience may not.
Submitting a video does not guarantee publication on the Showcase.
