can we use an AMV already posted on the forums or do we
make a new AMV and saying who made the anime the song you
use and other fact can you typ it under the link of the amv or do
they have to be in the AMV it self?.

You may use one you have already completed...but the point of a contest is really to do something new for the contest. It also helps if no one has seen your AMV previously..."shock & awe" of seeing a AMV for the first time go a long way in voting.

The credits don't have to be in the AMV...but it is a good practice to do that so no one "steals" your work. The credits DO have to be listed with your submission!!!

At @ace thanks for the info on AMV.org file limits. I didn't see it (tis blind though, lol) listed anywhere so I assumed they didn't have any.

Also if you wish to CHANGE your entry you may do so as long as it is ENTERED/UPDATED BY THE DEADLINE!!! Any changes made to your entry after the deadline will result in disqualification.
