    What's your favourite game?

    Honestly, Halo 2 Anniversary is my favorite game. Best game soundtrack ever, great storyline, etc. I also really like Skyrim.

    New Channel Artwork For All of My Channels

    Thanks for your feedback. :) You're right, the text does seem to be subtle compared to the backgrounds.

    New Channel Artwork For All of My Channels

    Your channel doesn't look bad, and your thumbnails are better than most that I've seen on YouTube. Once again, I suggest watching a bunch of tutorials and messing around with different programs. Many of the graphics I end up making are the results of accidents or just messing around with new...

    New Channel Artwork For All of My Channels

    Haha. Thanks. You can download plugins to make paint.net better and more usable. I've had a lot of experience with the program, that's all. I've been using it for at least 6 years, although I've grown as a designer in the past two years because of my role at school newspapers and having to...

    Telling people about your YouTube Channel IRL

    I have only told a few of my co-workers about my YouTube channels because journalists are nerds and we like those kinds of things. My parents are aware and my dad helps out and will be in many of the videos. I plan to tell many of the people I know once I actually have some content on all of...

    New Channel Artwork For All of My Channels

    I made new channel artwork for all of my channels, which can be viewed below. Let me know what you guys think. If there's anything that looks as though it needs work I have editable files saved, so changes will be easy to make. I use paint.net and I made all of the elements for each image...

    Youtube Outro

    I like it! The font is nice, bold, and easy to read and it looks like you put a lot of effort into it.

    Made A End Card For Someone

    It looks pretty good. I agree about the "Thanks for watching" being a little too low, but otherwise it's very clean.

    Post YOUR artwork!

    I made a new logo for Freak Shack Gaming last night. The skull has quite the story. It's actually a photo that I took with my old iPhone 5s of one of the sugar skulls my family has. Using some editing programs I made a transparent, more vibrant version that looks like an illustration. The...

    Percentage of real-life youtubers?

    I think that most new YouTubers are probably gamers and I know that in the few days that I've been here it seems to be mostly gamers. My brother and I have channels dedicated to both gaming and vlogs. Right now we're focusing on gaming until it gets warm/dry enough outside to actually do fun...

    Webcam. Why or Why Not?

    We actually don't have one yet because the one on my MSI won't show up in the Elgato software, but we want to use one for those same reasons. We want to have more of a personal connection with the viewers and show that we are more than just a voice over the game, we are people. Although...it...

    Upload Milestone The First Step: Our First Gaming Video

    We finally uploaded our first ever gaming video today! That's really significant because we've been trying to get started since DECEMBER. Now we're ready to make more and the ideas are flowing. Justin just needs to get his voice back so that we can start doing interesting commentary. Thanks...

    Ps4 vs Xbox one

    I'm definitely an Xbox person. Xbox One is much better than the 360 in my opinion, although the layout confuses me sometimes. I only used Sony as a kid when we had the PS1 and PS2.

    Is Roblox considered gaming?

    Yes! I used to play Roblox. I had an account there from 2009 to 2013 or so. I still log in every few months to see what's new, but I don't play it anymore. I think its a valuable game to display because I know that I learned a lot from the game. Leading a group of 400 members and being involved...

    Why do we do Youtube?

    Well, my brother and I have always played video games every now and then and we have our favorites. He actually plays COD every night, so we're already gaming a lot. Why not makes videos for it? As I journalist, I work with video a lot and I've made some really good feature stories on video for...

    Windows 10 Good or bad?

    I like Windows 10. I had some problems with it last year such as the start button not responding and I still have 100% disk usage being displayed on my brand new MSI laptop occasionally when it actually isn't being used, but overall it's an improvement from Windows 8.
