Best video editing site?

I have a new camera, Nikon D3100 and I really want to use it to it's potential and at the minute I'm using Windows Movie Maker, and it's really basic, and I really need to upgrade as I've upgraded my camera. I can't afford a iMac or MacBook just yet, so any good sites I could download that are just as simple as Movie Maker?
I've tried Vegas Pro, AVS, and a couple of others but AVS has crashed and Vegas Pro is far too complicated for my liking. I want something simple, but with amazing features!
I do dog training stuff and horse stuff at the minute, so best people to get examples off are these people - http://www.youtube.com/...CAQQwRs%3D Only video's that are edited with music though.

Help choosing a lens for my Nikon DSLR?

I currently own a Nikon D90 (DX) and a Nikon F100 (FX). The D90 came with an AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR. I also have an AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED. I just bought the F100 and I need a lens for it. I have noticed my growing need for a fast lens in low light situations, and have also grown fond of bokeh.
I need a lens that will work in low light, and that will work for both my Nikon D90 and F100 (meaning it needs to be an FX lens). I have researched a lot and have found these two lenses one is a DX lens and the other one an FX lens. I don't know if it would be wise to buy two lenses that are so similar, one will work only for the D90, and will work as a 50mm due to the crop sensor (http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/2183/AF-S-DX-NIKKOR-35mm-f%252F1.8G.html) and the other one will work for both (http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/2199/AF-S-NIKKOR-50mm-f%252F1.8G.html). The problem is that if I buy the FX 50mm (second link) I fear it will be too long when used indoor. I want it mostly for shooting street photography, but I know I'm going to use it for indoor photography eventually. My concern is I might not be able to fit the entire scene indoors.
I have researched this lens (http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/1923/AF-NIKKOR-35mm-f%252F2D.html#tab-ProductDetail-ProductTabs-RatingsReviews) which seems to be ideal and it isn't that good. This one is ideal but is very expensive (http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/1923/AF-NIKKOR-35mm-f%252F2D.html#tab-ProductDetail-ProductTabs-RatingsReviews). This is another choice but it is a manual focus and to be honest if I'm going to spend $1000 on a lens it better have auto and manual focus. Another lens that I researched (http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Camera-Lenses/1435/NIKKOR-50mm-f%252F1.2.html#tab-ProductDetail-ProductTabs-RatingsReviews) is this one, but it cost $700 and is manual focus. I'm open to any other brands that aren't Nikkor as long as the lens is sharp and has nice bokeh.
Any suggestions?

Nikon D3100 Long Exposure

I'm trying to take pictures of star trails with my Nikon D3100. I have a shutter release and I set it to take 150 45s exposure photos. For some reason it won't take the 45s photos back to back, it seems as though the camera has to take some time to save the photo. I was wondering if there was any ways to get around that. When I get every other photo my star trails look like dots rather than lines. Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Added (1). I can't do longer than a 45s exposure because otherwise my sensor will overheat and I get 'hot pixels'. I use an image stacking program to get the star trails.

How do you change the noise reduction?

How to take this photo? - 1

I have this necklace that when spun has two words on it. The way that it works is half of the words are printed on one side and the other half on the other side. I want to take a picture of it spinning thus capturing the completed words and i have been playing around with my camera and have been unsuccessful. Could you tell me what might work to achieve this? (Aperture, shutter speed, iso, etc.) i have a nikon d5100

Should I sell my Dslr and get a different one?

I currently own a Canon T3i with 18-55mm & 50mm f.1.8. I've been looking at a Nikon D90 and I love the image quality and things like that. So should I sell my Canon T3i with the 2 Lenses and use that money to buy myself a used Nikon D90 on craigslist with 18-55mm lens? Or should I stick with my Canon T3i?
