    Hmm...are you having to limit video viewing to YouTube directly to help deal with the new restrictions? :-/

    Ah well; as long as we can see 'em! :D

    I don't know what is going on. One of the videos you can watch here and other two no...have to figure out what is different in settings between them cuz I thought they all were set the same. And yes I removed ability to comment on the videos on youtube to protect myself from getting fined. I did a few other things like not showing subscribers and adding comments on rating and possible inappropriate content. The game kept crashing as well so I have to figure out what is going on.

    I was crashing every few minutes in those houses too!! It was so frustrating especially as I was decorating one as well as running the thing, and literally crashing to desktop every 15-20 minutes. Just in those houses (I don't know if it was all the lights or the Tenebrous house zone itself) and zoning into guild halls. I was so glad to be done in there.

    The crashing from the houses, could've been from the "moving parts," yeah. :-/

    The YouTube folderol they're putting Ocarinah through there, I've got no clue. :( Sounds like they've got bugs there... :-/

    I figured out the problem. For two of the videos I didn't have "Allow Embedding" allowed. I have edited those two videos to allow embedding and now you do not have to log into google/youtube to watch from this post. The video image still doesn't appear but that is okay as long as you can still click play from forums and works regardless if you log in or not. There is an option to take a screenshot to use as image and have that above the youtube video link. That would mean I probably have to create a new account for posting photos since my current one is pretty full. Not sure if this is big deal. I will make a new posting and ask people if this would be helpful or not. I will make sure any future videos I post have embedding allowed. As far as the crashing, it probably is so many items blinking and flashing and animated, etc. I can try turning downing the settings or just try to figure out how to edit so I can mash two videos together. I have never had issues with this in the past, maybe a tiny bit of lagging but never crashing. I haven't updated drivers recently but since hubby is out of town right now, too scared to see if that works...it usually resets so many things that it takes his help to get me back up and running with videoing cuz of my dang bad memory.

    I dont think the crashing was just the house but the game itself a lot of people have been having issues on and off of various things.
  12. Uwkete-of-Crushbone Well-Known Member

    Well, new expac... :-/

    And Oaky, if you have to get a new posting site for screenshots and things, I've always had a great deal of luck with www.DeviantArt.com (don't worry about the name, that's just them attracting attention ;->). It's where all my screenshots are published, and while they do have a video option, I've never used it myself yet, so I couldn't tell you if it's an improvement, or even what-all it entails. :-/

    Accounts can be made for free, if you don't mind ads in the margin.

    You are very welcome! I am no expert, I learn so much from everyone else (why I have to steal so much :rolleyes:). I had a ferret named Squeak he loved people so much and would come give you kisses right before alarm would go off. He would squeak like a dog toy when he bounced around sort of like my male kitten likes to do now.

    Oh Vox's children! Shepherds!?!?!...see my brain really doesn't like me anymore rofl. I am loving getting back to doing videos. Big Hugs Back!

    Thank you, Ocarinah, for doing these videos. I do apologize for the difficulties you had pronouncing all those words, though I honestly hadn't expected that you would try to read everything the house actors said, hehe.

    Each Who around the tree sings one or two lines to the original Who'ville song, except wherever it said Christmas, it now says Frostfell. The book was copied from the same website I found the lyrics at, and I thought it was an interesting explanation of the author's interpretation of the words in the original song. I did credit the website I took it from, in the book, as I certainly do not wish to be accused of plagiarism.

    The porches are indeed the bottom of those urns, and those urns were also used upside down for the chimney's of each Who'ville house. When I was trying to come up with my idea as to what to do for my entry, I was running through my tradeskill area in my guildhall where I had set a bunch of items down, and I thought, hmmmm, those actually look like the perfect shape for Who'ville, lol. So I plotted and planned until I came up with what I thought was a perfect Who'ville house.

    I love Dr. Seuss....my daughter grew up with his stories, and my grandchildren are growing up with his stories. Cindy Lou Who's line in my build about his heart growing three sizes that day is a memorable reference to the end of the original Grinch story, and I thought what a cool way to explain how Santa Glug came to be, even if it isn't the "true story". :D
