Author Topic: Return of the Mr. Wallet's Blockland Scripting Class  (Read 21226 times)

Srsly except for possibly Florida (but probably not) that whole time zone is teh gayzors.  :cookieMonster:
Excuse me? Are you insulting my timezone?
YOUR timezone should be insulted for not following daylight savings.

RE: videos
Depends on the service but probably not; most streaming video services make you pay real moneys to have a decent storage capacity.

Needs moar modeling classes.

Except I'm terrible at that.  :cookieMonster:

I've narrowed the service down to either Stickam or LiveStream, but none of these sites are very good at showing you what it's like until you sign up, download and install and configure a bunch of crap, and start streaming.

edit: The dealbreaker was that LiveStream is more fond of removing a mid-stream portion of video randomly for each user without notification to the broadcaster in favor of an advertisement video with sound. Since Stickam's ads are slightly less hostile to the broadcasting process, I'm going to try them; if it doesn't work out, I'll go back to ustream. More details on the channel later.

I liked what you used last time.

Use stickam, then show your boobies. That's what everybody does.

This is absolute love.
And Mr. Wallet, might I suggest Live Stream?
It's a great streaming site. I love using it. Just download the Livestream Pro (free :D)

LiveStream sucks.

Try reading the damn topic; I ruled out LiveStream explicitly. :|
