Omg I've been like...unproductive today but I'm staying up all night to be productive. xD I've literally spent the last 5 hours trying to figure out a bunch of bull-poo...

I'm trying to find a screen recording program that isn't going to burn my wallet and is able to allow me to edit it outside of the recording. A program called screenflow I've heard is great, but I'd want to speed up the vid ( it'd be my work within photoshop) and also put music in. if I put music or au
dio in screenflow, once I increase the speed, it will increase the au
dio's speed. So I looked into a program called Camtasia, and it's perfect except for one flaw... (GOD I hate Apple...) The mac version is lacking in it's ability to speed up clips. They haven't released a version for mac that has that feature in it yet. Seriously it's got EVERYTHING ELSE but it doesn't have that.

Why must you torment me so, mac?! D':

So anyway,, I've finally decided, after many hours of searching, testing, and looking up other screen capture and movie editing programs, that I'm sticking with Camtasia. It's got a wonderful layout, and a delicious user-friendly style and allows me to fiddle with lots of special effects and such. I'm going to buy it sometime this week once I get my paycheck cashed, and I shall use it. I suppose I can only hope that maybe soon they'll ad an update for it and the mac will finally have the ability to increase the speeds of clips. Or, I'll end up getting fed up and impatient and buy screenflow anyway xD; I'm bad about that...

 I've been putting up various test videos. I'll release my youtube to you guys if you are interested, but be aware that there will be the occasional spoiler for these adoptables. I'll try not to upload spoilers before they're posted here on res, but sometimes It might happen. Tonight, if i am able to get around to it though, I'm going to work on my banner more, and post the vid of it.

I warn you though, the videos WILL have music, but they will be long since I can't speed them up. I figured it'd be much more worth it to buy a video editor than can scree capture, rather than just buy the screen capture. Sure, the editor lacks my speeding up process for the moment, but at least the long videos will have au
dio. Rather than having you folks sit for 5-10 minutes staring at a sped up video with NOTHING playing to entertain you.I know I'd rather have sound than speed~

Also, forgive me for any typos or odd wording. my computer is lagging bad right now because I'm running too many things at one time lol~ 

Awww Astrid. D: Feel better. *hugs*

And I hope your Camtasia goes well for you. c:

Not getting Camtasia after all. I have no choice but to get both ( unless someone knows of a decent movie editing program for macs? Besides imovie. THere's a huge lengthy reason why I can't get imovie. but yeah...besides imovie, and soemthing that is free or at least cheaper than 100 bucks..)

I uploaded a vid, it's got a playlist, but my god..the length of the video is too much. Music or not, it's dumb to watch a photoshop vid at the same speed it's being made. I think I know why most are sped up anyway now....to hide mistakes and derp moments. xD;

So...I'm getting screenflow first. Otherwise I'll end up waiting a year for the update to realese or something for Camtasia...

Here's hoping I can do it. I'm going to need to sort out my expenses though. I might not be able to afford getting both programs right away, as much as I'd like to. I may have to wait for my next payday.  

Aw, darf. :c  That's not good...

could i reserve an egg from the next batch?

If i could, could i have egg #5?

I'm going to cheat the system.

xD

I have camtasia as a trial for 29 more days.  With the trial I can upload whatever I want and there's no awful watermark in the vids. So here's what I'm going to do:

Buy Screenflow (probably tomorrow) once I get my check in...and use camtasia to its full trial time to edit in music for my vids. And since I've a full month left, I'll be able to get paid again before camtasia is up for its trial, and I can have full access <3

-feels smart-

Arizona: There should be new eggs up sometime this week. Probably not for another few days though ^^;

Timber: Yes you may. I'll reserve #5 for you.

An update for all:

Shao and Stary, I've completed your litter. I need to make the eggs still, but it's done. Shao, your mutations for Sorrow and Harrow are completed as well.

LadyNightFyre your litter is done too, I need to complete the eggs.

Hiara, your accessorries have been added to your orychis, and the tail of your kindlepaw has been changed to an autumn leaf.I'm sketching out your hybrid for your litter as well.

And here, in the colorful barrens of the world known as Rescreatu Forums, we see a lone Astridicus Canus burrowing and investigating on her territory. But what's this? it appears the Astridicus Canus has attracted some lurking Threadeous Stalkeris....

The Astridicus sniffs at the air cautiously, and buries herself in her burrow once more, hiding in the safety of the cool earth, wary of the predatorial instincts of the Threadeous Stalkerises...
