You guys came up with the idea, so here it is! This is a contest to make an intro for my Youtube videos! But what's in it for you? How about 20 bucks? Here's how it'll throw down:

-The intro must be 5-10 seconds long, at a resolution of 640x360.
-DO NOT use copyrighted music. Then the videos can't be submitted for revenue sharing on my Youtube partnership. (If you do use music, please tell me where it was from.)
-(Optional) Use footage from my videos for the intro, or pictures.
-Post as many entries as you'd like!

The (tentative) deadline is August 15th. So how will the prize work? If you win, I will forward the $20 to your Paypal account, or use your parent's if you don't have one. If you have no way of having access to Paypal, I'll send you $20 worth of Wii Points to your Nintendo Wii. If I can't get it to you either of those ways...we'll work something out. I'm not mailing a check though. I don't trust the Postal Service with mailing a cookie crumb.

GOOD LUCK!

640x360.

You REALLY got to be careful what music you pick, though. I'm going to need 100% permission from the artist.

Is music from a game good like mario games or what not?

sillyokid · 07-07-2009, 10:56 AM

Where should we put the video?
Youtube, Rapidshare, Megaupload?

***TweeterMan287*** · 07-07-2009, 11:35 AM

You can put the video anywhere, just as long as it's downloadable for me.

I know if you wanna do 640x360 in Windows Movie Maker, there's an article in Microsoft's help database that's really easy to follow (it's what I did.)

Music from a video game is still going to be considered copyrighted, although when "hookedonranranruu" made me that intro I used that one time, it had Mario music in it. Hmm, I dunno...

Yeah, and isn't the music for your current intro copyrighted?

***TweeterMan287*** · 07-07-2009, 12:15 PM

Well, the original is (it's a boss theme from the N64 game Paper Mario), but what I used is a remix that another Youtuber made.

You know what, I'm confused now.

Nick6300 · 07-07-2009, 12:29 PM

Is it ok if I use Windows Movie Maker

Lotica' · 07-07-2009, 12:29 PM

I would make a intro, but the problem is the music for me. Youtube makes it so harder now to make a intro for a video that it's just mind blowing.

It doesn't matter what you use.

I doubt Ill win this...

Will the original Mario theme work out?

sillyokid · 07-07-2009, 02:30 PM

So something like this will be acceptable?
