"From many of the videos you have made I can't help thinking your diary would be well worth reading."Thank you. Unfortunately several volumes of my journals were destroyed by rain water. I still lament the loss.

From many of the videos you have made I can't help thinking your diary would be well worth reading.

I have this dillemma. Everytime I keep a journal for any length of time I end up destroying it. I had journals that went on for months only to end up in the shredder. I feel the need to write, just like Dphile said so I can leave my personal history to my family, so they would know some of the challenges I was up against and maybe find some strength or comfort or insight from my life story. I always end up destroying them after I read back on them. Anybody else experienced this?

And as for my channel- I try to add an interesting variety of videos within the pre-defined subjects.

I am not that... aesthetically pleasing.

know that the format format for YT is MP4 or .wmv-which I use. The pics you import can be sized to any 3/4 ratio-ie 300/400 pixels-for a better look without framing. There is a 10 Mb limit on YT. Uploading is a snap-go to My Acct/My Videos and see how it all works. There are many vids on YT that walk you through the entire thing, too.

ah, on your puter there is WindowsMovieMaker-simple to learn, though not very powerful-you can take any image-'imort' it, add music or voice if you like, and then 'render' a video-You can add effects and text in WMM, too. If your computer is not powerful, try to not have two many other apps open.

I look forward to that-and for me Stickam is far worse than YT--I have trouble getting around there. Have you tried THAT? Even the simplest tasks there I find impossible. You write beautifully, R0.

I am 14 years old, but unlike my technophile consorts who know no useful purpose for technology but prefer simple taks, I am the total opposite. I will get a web camera and attempt to grapple with the awful software workings of this infernal website.

R055HP (December 9, 2007 at 9:43 pm)

That is perhaps the most brilliant question I have ever heard you ask, Deserphile!

R055HP (December 9, 2007 at 9:38 pm)

How do you make a video. And yes, I am 14. I have no web camera. I am basically a reclusive, knowledge consuming 'lad' with delusions of grandeur.

"Just keep telling yourself that, Desertphile."LOL! Yeah, well.... it's the guacamole that's to blame.
