[LusikkaMage]

Heyho

I'm working on two tutorials at the moment: Basically, one to go BEFORE my last tutorial, and one to go AFTER (more basic and more advanced).

Still have to write out the written version and have it peer reviewed before I can get the video version into production.

Thanks!

[logichook]

Hey Rachel, I was about to buy a T-Shirt, but they do not ship it to Brazil. Snif!

Keep up the great work!

[0121ryanh117]

How do you post your videos? I dont understand.

[LusikkaMage]

Fortunately my apartment isn't the only potential place to get internet access. My parents have internet, as does my campus. It's just a pain to have to go to their house to do homework and such.

I do have internet at my apartment now, but I'm working more and I'm more broke, and I'm busy all the time because of work+school.

[RyanPridgeon]

Can't a day go by where I don't get rickroll'd?

[LusikkaMage]

I sure can't... it's my ringtone. :o

[RyanPridgeon]

my friends decided to set it as my ringtone once -.-'

[HomocidalCanineK9]

Post the MP3!

[LusikkaMage]

I didn't play the whole song, though, just the one part I'm good at. ;P

[HomocidalCanineK9]

Still post that much, please! So. Freakin. Epic.

[Animatixxking]

can order a shirt ,even if i live in europe?

[LusikkaMage]

Yeah, ships to quite a few countries.

Austrailia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxemburg, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and United States.

[LusikkaMage]

(It is through another website that creates/sells them for me, just mentioned my website because I can't post links in youtube comments)

[Animatixxking]

omg do u sell t-shirts :D

[LusikkaMage]

Yeah, I have a few diff t-shirts, can find on my website.

[soccergod561234]

Rachael, if I may call you that =) why dont you jsut walk around with your laptop in random place and feed off of other peoples wifi connections I knwo alot of computer illeterate people who live in populated areas, lol jsut sit near a bench and feed off some unguarded wifi :) I hope I helped, well, in the only way I could.. pointing out the obvious lol, also Im thinking about buying a T-shirt but why not sell apps also? I could use some tools and I promise Id buy one if you put em up =) peace

[LusikkaMage]

Rachel**

All the wifi that is near my apartment are locked, and it's kind of hard to record video dialog while sitting in the car in someone's parking lot.

Also, what kind of apps are you wanting?

[soccergod561234]

lol any kind of apps, I cant get your map editor working I get a win32 error lol, but I mean, any kind of app I know id pay for it =D because Id use it at some point, maybe like 5 dollars for a tile engine you wrote lol, it would save me 30 minutes per game, haha.

[LusikkaMage]

I dunno. Why don't I make apps for free, and people can donate if they think it's worth it? o.o

(It always annoys me when I'm looking for a utility and all the ones I can find you have to spend $20 - $100 on)

[dandymcgee]

Since she already has a bunch of tile engines on her website for free (most of her games include source) you could just donate or buy a T-Shirt! :P

[ccricers]

What does it take to be a YouTube partner? If you can be a YT partner you'll earn money for your views. I know you have to have a somewhat popular channel, but is 1000 subscribers enough?

[ccricers]

I know how working without the internet sucks...I also built a computer for my brother but he lives with his family and they have no internet connection. So the PC sits there mostly unused. Then I thought "hey, I'll bring some Steam games over to install...crap that also uses the internet."

[jSaurabh]

Don't you get free hi-speed internet at your university? Do what I do, and camp out in the library.

[LusikkaMage]

It's summer, I don't have any classes, parking permits are expensive, and it's completely out of the way.

I don't want to pay for nor pack a lunch and sit on campus all day, I can't take my desktop computer. Why is it unreasonable to want to sit in the comfort of my apartment and work? I just need about $20/mo until school DOES start, and luckily I've almost raised that.

[lewisduncan93]

OMG I got slow rick roll'd!

[FusionNinjin]

I lost my internett too :( im on laptop on a random open slow network :x

[LusikkaMage]

There are a dozen wifi points around my apartment.

Unfortunately they're all LOCKED! :'(

[xXKiTheifXx]

Go threaten the neighbor that you'll destroy them unless you get there internet password!!!

just an Idea :D

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

Being a programmer without internetz does suck...

I barely have internetz...

I wish I had to money to donate...

[Xjkjk3264X]

No internetz? OH EM GEE!

[Sanshin77]

Oh lol, listen closely to the music. Its the "Rick-Roll" melody :)

[LusikkaMage]

Do you really want to see advertisements in the youtube videos?

[Sanshin77]

You know what Im talking bout right? ads over the video description and on the bottom of the youtube player? I dont mind that if it helps you get internet

[LusikkaMage]

Ah, I didn't know that. (I thought it'd be like the annoying adverts on Yahtzee's videos)

I guess it wouldn't hurt to look into, but if they're anything like the google adverts I had on my site, they won't be work clicking.

[funkyewan]

Yet you uploaded this video..

-suspicious eyes-

[MrOnix9009]

she probaly postes her videos at college or her friends house... it aint suspicious

[LusikkaMage]

Yes, fortunately my apartment is not the only potential place to get internet access in Kansas City.

I upload my videos either form my parents' house or my ex's house.

But what's a huuuuuuuuuuuuugeee pain in the ass is trying to write and record the tutorials, only to get stuck on something I need to research, stopping what I'm doing, having to wait until the next day after I'm off work and having to research this stuff on my laptop.

This is why it's taken me a month to do this so far.

[robotwo]

now that's a sad-face :)

[flatlinercoder]

Why not use Google adsence on your videos and website? That might help bring in a bit of revenue.

[jasonrose65]

Agreed.

[LusikkaMage]

I made a whole $0.50 in the two months I had google ads on my site.

My stuff is catered to coders and computer nerds in general. Probably 90% of them have adblock, and the other 10% aren't stupid enough to click ads like "GET A FREE PS2 OMFG!!!11"

[edv11nas]

o.o freaking scary. Only 50cents. Probably you should just find a job.

[LusikkaMage]

I have a job.

The thing is, if I get a second job, then there will be absolutely no more tutorials.

Same for a full-time job, which I have to get next year anyways. :s

[Noctambulist47]

How Funny

[eatcomics]

har har

[MrOnix9009]

if I get a bank card I will deffently donate.

[MrOnix9009]

[ProgrammerInProgress]

[TheBatchGuy]

Hahahaha!
