Heheheh...nice to see you moving along so swiftly. External validation is a classic problem of youth - I'm impressed to see you figured things out as soon as you did. Making videos out here puts one under once's own microscope more than most realize. Anyway, you're taking some good directions, here, in your thinking. Don't worry about things - relax, do your own thing, and stay open to constructive critiism. Carry on...

@TheMercilessEye I guess I am still within that age range though I actually tend to look deceptively younger than I am; I'm actually 27 at the moment. Just a bit of fun trivia about me there. But yeah, it's an issue I'm working hard to keep in check in everything I do. I am actually working on drawings that I'll be using as cartoon characters in videos where they'll actually express my views by debating with each other. I figured....

@TheNeocatZone Hm. That is very interesting (all of it, of course, but the cartoon character part particularly so.) Have you ever visited DarkMatter2525's channel? He works in Flash, and he's quite good:

You might want to consider employing Flash animation in your work. Just a thought...

@TheMercilessEye That is a program I have an interest in downloading when I have the opportunity though the 'animation' in my videos may actually be a bit cruder if the word is accurate; my drawings are colored pencil drawings of a range of emotions for each character and in the videos, the animation will consist of going back and forth between still shots of the drawings as I provide the voices. Luckily....

Con't. I've always been talented at voices and cartooning, so it shouldn't be too boring; this is just a way for me to do the videos in the quickest way possible once they start getting posted.

Con't. Doing it that way would make me feel less self-conscious about whether I might come off as some pedantic salesman and allow some degree of detachment that would make critical responses feel less like a personal attack. And I have made some headway behind-the-scenes with this self-validation thing, especially after I caught myself getting too worked up over the recent jezuzfreek777 drama. So - thanks for watching and commenting. :)

@TheNeocatZone Always a pleasure. I'll be lurking... ; )

@Silkspine It's gonna be some cool stuff; I already picked out better background music at Unique Tracks.

Well your last comment in Nick's vid intrigued me... so here I am. And what can I say.. you're awesome dude :) I think we are a little bit alike in some ways. I might stick around for a bit and see what happens.

@BespokeGroupUK That's exactly the road I'm going to take from this point forward rather than hope I can figure it all out in one project. Thanks for the comment, Nick. :)
