Actually, from what I've heard it's very simple (and keep in mind I read this of a site of the internet, so it may not be true) . Say a video has got 3 likes and 10 dislikes. It still has a higher chance to get on the front page of the search results then a video with 6 likes and 1 dislikes, purely because YouTube doesn't make a difference between likes and dislikes. It's pretty silly in my opinion, and I think it should be changed.

@Spider Dealing with Youtube sucks mini/confused . In order to appeal to a copyright claim you have to be a partner, then give your phone number and finally wait. I can get that they make it hard, because of the massive amount of people visiting the site. Bit still!

Once this happens, I'll set up YouTube.

Wow, I did not know that was happening! I'll probably do that when it is released. I have been really annoyed with the constant pestering to change to my real name, so this should be nice.

Finally! I've been wondering when this would happen. Thanks for sharing. I'll be glad to set this up! Also, when can we expect content from you, Carousel?? mini/bigsmile

So essentially, they are saying "this many people cared enough about the video to have an opinion on it." Ew. You're right, that is a bad idea.

Probably some time after this G+ Page thing goes into the wild. I have quite (two years of daydreaming worth) a few ideas in the pipeline, and one, Kryptolicious, is in scripting phase. I've still got to get a Mic and Final Cut Pro. Nice that you asked.

Re: YouTube

So, my channel "Larry Simmons" has reached 200+ subscribers in less than 30 days (and I only have 1 video there). I certainly didn't expect such quick success!

Re: YouTube

wow... I only wish That could work for me..... mini/sad
I'll get there....

hoping to be at 50 subs by the end of March...
please help me out my fellow kind brickfilmers...

Re: YouTube

Yet another change to youtube. Now when you go to subscriptions It shows a top to bottom single file list of videos with the most recent on top. I liked it better when it just showed the ones you haven't watched. mini/sad

This. I shouldn't be so greedy, though. I never even put videos on there (and only one has over 100 subscribers). Maybe if I made more films, I could get more views. But, then again, look at Larry Simmons. He only has one video, and over 2000 subscribers.

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

That is mostly due to the fact that he had a large, pre-built audience who already watched all his videos, and naturally migrated over to his new channel. Plus he publicized his switch well on his main channel, so all of his subscribers were aware of the situation.

Re: YouTube

Guys, it's not 2000+, it's 200+. It's mostly thanks to Michael Hickox who commented on my video, so all of his subscribers saw that on their feed and checked out my film mini/smile

Re: YouTube

I'm surprised no one is talking about the new Channel Designs on here yet. I posted some of my thoughts over on my blog: http://www.repellingspider.com/2013/03/ … r-bad.html

Re: YouTube

Ooh, I didn't realize it had been released! I'll be trying this out over the weekend. mini/smile

Re: YouTube

@Spider Great blog post! Instead of putting my opinion in the comments, I figured i'd put it here (as to spark a discussion).

Personally, I love the new channel designs. If you add a wallpaper to it then you've got my favorite so far (replacing the white with black or any color of your choosing would also be o.k.). It's actually pretty customizable (more so then the previous one) and the channel banner thing is lovely. For those in need of a template, an excellent one can be found here: Link (check the description for a download link). My only problem is the fact that the file size has to be pretty small, which results in a pretty low quality JPEG. The channel trailer is also pretty weird, so I ended up just putting my most recent film up there.

Naturally, if you want to give feedback on my channel design, it's very much appreciated mini/smile .

Re: YouTube

How do I change the layout then? I don't see an option to do that.

Re: YouTube

@Larry Linkie link. Scroll down and opt-in. A small tour will start and you'll be introduced. If you want to opt out then go to the same link and the button will have changed.

Re: YouTube

Thanks. Ok, here's how my new channel looks now mini/smile http://www.youtube.com/user/LarrySimmonsTV?feature=mhee

Re: YouTube

I'm just going to post here what I commented on RP's blog:

Hm, I'm kind of liking the new channel design. Now I just need some channel art. Also does anyone know how to move playlists/sections up and down?

Re: YouTube

@Mighty Wanderer Look on the side of the 'section'. There's a small grey bar. Just click and drag it to move it around.
