Earlier, my account was in jeopardy because I'd had so much video-on-demand content bandwidth usage of both storage and viewing had pushed me way over the limit of a free account.<br /><br />But in an ironic twist, that same crazy overuse of bandwidth was probably what drew attention from Livestream staff, and they felt the channel was popular enough to offer a partnership account!

can teach students with Adobe Connect. So now there's something a little more formalized and sensible where you can schedule one-on-one tutoring sessions. I took down my Skype link and the meebo chatroom because I was getting a lot more spam than actual conversation <span style="font-size:78%;">(It was bound to happen thanks to the Internet Hate Machine)</span> <span style="font-size:100%;">and</span> my class has been keeping me pretty busy. Still, I'm probably free maybe a couple hours to talk now and then on eduFire. Of course I still read and respond to the comments you post here to my blog.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072411.post-61162887397634720832008-10-28T20:53:00.001-04:002008-10-28T20:53:30.090-04:00Seeing through the "Barrier", "Interpolation & Extrapolation"<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div class='youtube-video'><object height='344' width='425'><param value='http://www.youtube.com/v/X3LVJ-2cZqg&hl=en&fs=1' name='movie'> </param><param value='true' name='allowFullScreen'> </param><embed height='344' width='425' allowfullscreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://www.youtube.com/v/X3LVJ-2cZqg&hl=en&fs=1'> </embed></object></div><br /><br /><div class='youtube-video'><object height='344' width='425'><param value='http://www.youtube.com/v/IM-7qtjP2mM&hl=en&fs=1' name='movie'> </param><param value='true' name='allowFullScreen'> </param><embed height='344' width='425' allowfullscreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://www.youtube.com/v/IM-7qtjP2mM&hl=en&fs=1'> </embed></object></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072411.post-91385343969058627512008-10-27T23:56:00.001-04:002008-10-27T23:56:38.519-04:00The "Barrier Effect"<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div class='youtube-video'><object height='344' width='425'><param value='http://www.youtube.com/v/L5oAOnIn3cY&hl=en&fs=1' name='movie'> </param><param value='true' name='allowFullScreen'> </param><embed height='344' width='425' allowfullscreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://www.youtube.com/v/L5oAOnIn3cY&hl=en&fs=1'> </embed></object></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072411.post-5872877730818296572008-10-27T16:39:00.001-04:002008-10-27T16:39:19.551-04:00Drawing IN the page, and "Offside Targeting"<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>I always say this and that about drawing IN the page, rather than drawing ON the page.

After reading through a bunch-o-stuff on their Terms & Conditions, I felt that some of my videos such as the "Derelict" series(which had Winamp playing some Copyrighted music playing in the background) <strike>and my photoreference speed painting (which used some of Chris Smart's work</strike> and some Style.com reference) were gonna pose some Copyright problems so I voluntarily took the initiative to take 'em down.<br /><br />Not to worry, I will be rerecording these demos using my own photo reference taken during my travels through Europe. I have a 40-minute speedpainting demo of a church during my visit to Annecy, France that I'm compressing for upload now.<br /><br /><b><br /></b><a style="" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/38224"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 174px;" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/markofalltrades/SQSc5kejS7I/AAAAAAAAA4s/0P8hutSmhgs/%5BUNSET%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" border="0" /></a><b>UPDATE:</b> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cydonian.com/">Chris Smart</a> IS <b>TEH OFFICIAL AWESOME GUY!!!</b><br />He graciously gave me permission to use his great <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cydonian.com/photos/index.php">photographs</a> as reference materials for my video tutorials so I'll be re-uploading just those videos.
