-Once trimmed, videos were resized and uploaded in several resolutions so that it is possible to serve an adequate file size and quality according to the scenario (e.g. inline playing of embedded thumbnail versus playing in full window). Resizing has also been convenient to cope with some specific circumstances (e.g. iPhone scaling to screen resolution and maximum playable resolution).

 === Video hosting===
 We opted to host the videos ourselves (i.e., they are maintained and served from the same host where the wiki is hosted) in H.264 format. Users are required to use a QuickTime compatible plugin. This may be revised in the future but it has shown to be the best approach by now.

 The cards constitute a minimized version of their corresponding patterns. To date, we identified  two main ways to profit from this format:
 *One consists of simply augmenting the contact between potential users and te patterns, through ad-hoc browsing of the cards, possibly combined with visits to the availabe online resources (particularly the video examples and the description that goes beyond the included synopsis).
-*The other consists in using the cards as a tool integrated in a process of game design, in a manner that participants are able to discuss possible explorations of sound to be included in the game being designed. We have documented some possibilities, but we eager to consider variations.

 The cards also have been playing an important role in the research that supports this initiative. When used in a setting where designers interact while discussing possible sound explorations during a design session, they are instrumental in auditing the use of the pattern language, which, in turn allows identifying opportunities to enhance the language, the explorations being covered, and the cards themselves.
