Another Random oldschool dance track for Saturday night … An all time classics, Jan Driver Mix is probably the best mix … It’s a 12″ DJ/Club version, so it’s longer than radio edit, with longer intro and outro for the … Continue reading Laurent Garnier – The Man With The Red Face (Jan Driver Remix)
Random oldschool dance music for Saturday night … Couldn’t decide which version I preferred, so I posted both (probably the first one). No idea where I first heard it.

Recently I moved my old videos from WordPress to YouTube to free up storage space on my blog, for posting photography later.
I wasn’t quite sure how YouTube would deal with the fact that the music included in some of my videos is mainstream and copyright. I thought this was a big no no on YouTube.
As it turns out, I was wrong – it’s OK, you can post copyright music without getting banned etc from YouTube. Only thing that will happen is that the video will get marked as containing copyright music. The rub is that you won’t receive any monetization. *Nothing bad will happen.*
I thought about it for a while, and actually I don’t care, my videos would probably only clock up a few views anyway – so monetization isn’t something of any importance to me.
The other thing is videos can be set to unlisted, so they don’t appear in search. What that means is it’s just your blog viewers who can access them via the special link provided by YouTube (not shown in any search).
So copyright owner isn’t actually going to make any money from you posting the video, which is fine for me (of course if you actually wanted to give the money to the copyright owner, you can set the video as listed for search in YouTube)
So, could be a good way to share music you like with your followers – just a suggestion/tip. Might be helpful to someone. I will likely use the facility again later, as sometimes I can only find poor quality versions of pieces of music (on YouTube) I’d like to share, or I can’t find the particular mix/version that I have in my own music collection.
It’s simple to merge a single still photo with music (easiest way to do it). Or if you have video you can merge the video with music.
I think I used Photoshop to do mine. Also Avidemux I’ve used in the past – it’s free, and pretty easy to use. Plus plenty of others out there.
Feel free to leave a comment – what’s your favourite video editing software (preferably free and easy to use.) ?Especially like to hear what Linux users use for video editing, as I’m using Linux more and more these days.
Cheers
Don Charisma

I grew up with the BBC. They made some amazing TV and were probably the best of the 3, and then 4 channels available to watch (that’s all we had). Some of the greatest ever comedy shows came out of … Continue reading The Bias Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) – Worth £155 Per Year On Pain Of Prison ?

Hopefully a botanist will correct me on this, but I think the full name for these is – “Rubiaceae Ixora Coccinea”
This species of flowers are popular in Thailand … The plant itself makes great hedges, the blooms come in a variety of colours.

Loved capturing this one on the steps up to the big Buddha …
These flowers are so pretty !

I “inherited” a hosting account with Greengeeks via my business partner. Our sites used to be hosted with them, but we’re currently moving away from them, because, to be blunt, they are awful in so many ways.
Robert Lee had this to say, which pretty much sums up how I feel about them :

The expansiveness of the greenery … and of course it’s a spiritual place for Buddhists …
