Lost Video Island

Wickedgal · Posted: Thu Jan 28, 2010 6:16 pm Post subject: Important Notice

Ive just had my first strike on my YT account. Now if I get two more I'm gone. I would make a backup account but I'm tired of having to fight to keep my vids online. This is my third account...I'm not going through it again by creating a new one. So if that happens, which I hope it doesnt, I'm not going to be making videos again. There's no point. I can't enjoy making videos if I can't share them with people.
I'll still be on here and stuff but I'm done fighting YT. I really am. Thank you all for commenting/rating/favouriting my vids

Having said all that I'm working on a vid atm

I'm not done fighing just yet

No, Amy, you can't stop making/sharing your vids!!

I understand your frustration about YT, it does suck

And I'm sorry they're giving you trouble. If it does happen again (which I hope it doesn't), you can always upload your vids to here or Paul's site (which I can't find the link for atm

). You could always use Zshare too. I really enjoy watching your vids, I hope you do continue to make them even if YT does decide to be a pain!

aw thanks Jemma

its nice ive got alternatives. I think it's more than that you know? I just see all the great videos out there and sometimes I look at my own and go...ugh.

Plus Ive not had a good idea in ages. Normaly if I have a good idea it'll keep me up all night just thinking about it and then I'll end up on the computer for hours and hours and hours just completing it. Now I only get a good idea once like every couple of months

Don't say that! You are getting better and better with your vidding, and I always enjoy your Chana vids! There needs to be more out there!

I think the lack of vidding muse is only temporary! It will come back to you! In the meantime, you should just listen to songs and see if any ideas spring to mind.

Oh, poor thing! *gives you a big hug* I know how hard it is when inspiration just flatlines like that!

It really is so disheartening when you want to vid (or write or whatever) and you just can't seem to get it to work for you. Then that makes it torture to try to do it and you still end up feeling like you're not doing good work.

Anyway, I really hope you don't give up on vidding, especially because of Youtube and the copyright brigade.

I know how discouraging it is anymore to have your old vids taken down, your new vids muted or disabled and to always have to worry about losing your account.

But YT isn't the only game in town when it comes to streaming hosts and there are still plenty of downloadable places as well. And so long as there's someplace like LVI, there will always be somebody who wants to see your vids! *hugs*

When I get low on inspiration, I try vidding for a fandom I've never vidded before or for characters or a couple that I haven't done before and sometimes that'll kinda kickstart my inspiration again. But then there are sometimes when I just have to wait it out and let my batteries sort of recharge before I really am able to vid again and enjoy it.

So hang in there, hon! Hopefully it won't be long before you're feeling like vidding again and having fun doing it! (Which is the most important part, IMO.

) *more hugs for the road* ♥!
