there is a problem for windows users. We can only print screen about a third of the page! help?

[NephilimBand]

Try clicking the fullscreen internetview

which is f11 and its much easier to use print screen.

Hope i helped :D

[geeksquad559]

@NephilimBand hey i did that but how i get to the print thing

[TheBrownMansHands]

[thealexfrom1994]

What screen recorder did you use?

[DeadFredVideo]

I used screenium :) Screenium is still in beta but its a great app, i went ahead and ought it so i can get all the updates to the final version :D

If you want a rock solid screen recorder, go to ramin987's channel and hit the shiny white box link on one of his videos :) They do i show u :)

[thealexfrom1994]

Im a PC user. soz. um do u have anyidea what screen recorders thee are for Windows Vista that dont have watermark logos on them?

[thenintendoman]

print screen?

[rayzay909]

i dont understand that either

[EmuNerd]

Download screenium then just look for a serial code or crack/keygen to patch it.....

[GarrettDoyle]

Type in hypercam in google for PC screen recorders, macs are better though

[annstasia18]

hahahahahahahahahah

[DeathreapProductions]

Great Video!!! Thank You SOOOOO MUCH

[DeadFredVideo]

Thanks! Update me on how it goes :D

[leodime]

... or you can just use the dimensions of the cropped screenshot and create one from scratch that'll fit perfectly.

[DeadFredVideo]

Good point lol :D

[VMKMileyCyrus]

on windows how do i copy the whole screen, it only gives me a part when i click print screen, it's bc of the scrole tho.

[DeadFredVideo]

Sorry for the late reply lol

If your youtube page isn't fitting in when your doing a print screen i don't really know how to help you, sorry :)

[VMKMileyCyrus]

oh yeah that's ok

[pcmacp719c1]

I created my own custom background using Gimp and Photobucket and it turned out great on YouTube! Thanks for posting this video!

--Michael

[iTalkApple]

well i uploaded mine to photobucket, but when i try to make it my wallpaper on youtube, it says its an invalid address...

but i copied the direct link

[DeadFredVideo]

Thats really wierd let me just have a look at how my address thing works and ill send you a PM

[DeadFredVideo]

LOL just checking back through comments and noticed yours :)

Got it working in the end lol :)

[itech2cows]

hey nice video, but how do do that thing where in does like a little ripple effect when you click somewhere?

[DeadFredVideo]

Thats part of the screen recording software i use called screenium. I don't see it all the time just in videos :)

[DUUDEWHERESMYCAR]

how do you use those file types?

[DeadFredVideo]

Hey peeps! Tell me how your doing a few comments have had problems, so yeah :D

[DUUDEWHERESMYCAR]

when i tried this on gimp......

i tired uploading to photobucket and it said invalid extension.

[DeadFredVideo]

Did you use JPG or PNG file types? Make sure you use them two they are the only ones i know that work :)

Check this and get back to me :D Cheers

[DUUDEWHERESMYCAR]

how do you use those?

[DeadFredVideo]

When you save the image there should be a list of file types below where you type the pictures name.Click on the list and choose JPG or PNG, then save and upload to photobucket.

Sorry the reply is late im in the UK was asleep LOL

[DeadFredVideo]

Nah just regular old firefox 2, i wish the theme was nicer but i hear firefox 3 is gonna bring some nice mac os integration so YAY.

I tried some os x themes they were all a little half baked :D

w00t!

[EBUTU0YY0UTUBE]

i like Gimp, gimps are very good ;)

[iTalkApple]

i did everything, but when i paste the direct url it says i didn't enter a valid URL

[DeadFredVideo]

Are you using photobucket or a different website? :)

[DeadFredVideo]

Get back to me about how it's going :D

[iTalkApple]
