Jul 20, 2008 - Nice headband! WooHoo! My work here is done.

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - My problem is mostly me. I kept misplacing my usb camera (and drivers), ha. I would lose my isight if it wasn't attached. Now, all I need is some good content. 8^)

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Perhaps that's the key right there. I need to wait for an idea to strike me first. 8^)

Blargaldalien Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - The headband,FTW!

Blews4Blesus Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - I think the headband is great, but it would hide the ear wiggling trick!

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - WooHOO! Third headband comment, my day has been made! 8^)

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Fourth headband comment, so now I'm thinking that I set the bar too low, ha! Thanks.

Jul 20, 2008 - I think you should make videos if you enjoy doing so. Boy, Macs do have good video quality, don't they? I noticed that in other videos, too.-- Matt

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 21, 2008 - Well, it was overdue, if you ask me. I think I should have said 'BANDANA" instead of "headband".

TheWaterScorpion Says:

Jul 21, 2008 - Hey, I noticed the rectangular lenses. What is it with YouTubers and those lenses?

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 21, 2008 - Wow, you are really here to spread Love&SMiles, ha, thanks.

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 21, 2008 - Yeah, I tried to tweak the settings on some previous videos, but it just made the picture worse. I am using the default "export to CD" (15fps 320x480) setting now.I do enjoy making the videos, I would probably still make them even if nobody watched, ha.

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 21, 2008 - I suppose the popular Tubers are copying my style, ha! These glasses first appeared in my "Committed to Quality" video posted in July of 2007.I got them at the dollar store, they were reading glasses. I took the lenses out in recent video to cut down on reflections in video. They help hide the bags under my eyes.I'm nearsighted, and I wear bifocals in real life but I can see and read without any glasses up to an arms length. TMI?, ha.

bjhorton2005 Says:

Jul 23, 2008 - Ah, well I received the new replacement iMac, and it is fully functional. I love it! I just hope it doesn't burn up now. heheh I also have the Time machine, and a macbook pro, now I am having tons of problems with the internet connectivity. The laptop looses internet every so often. HAHA, I can't win em all.

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 23, 2008 - Thanks, me too!

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 23, 2008 - Macs are fantastic for video, if you pay cash, it only hurts once, ha! Thanks for the headband comment. 8^)

JeriLynnKarr Says:

Jul 23, 2008 - Now, let's see, if you would put a mirror in front of your mac and record just a teeny bit, I can just admire yours from here.....

Minniver Says:

Jul 27, 2008 - I used to make the sign of the cross when I heard the word mac now I'm not so sure...ummm, what were you saying? I was distracted by the great lighting.

ArdieVerde Says:

Jul 29, 2008 - The Mac has been good to me, so far (6 months). The lighting, yes, the lighting, a 25watt spotlight bulb in a gooseneck fixture from IKEA, clamped to the table ha!
