MEW Streamers & Content Creators (Twitch, YouTube, FB Gaming)

Thanks! Great feedback! Maybe I was just impatient with watching my own stream, knowing what was coming.

Friend of a friends stream, he is trying to get his 1k.

It has been a while so I thought I would share a well fought for win.

Iā€™ve been watching a lot of streamers lately, and Iā€™m getting the itch to stream on Twitch. I know Bezos is a witch, and treats the world like his b*tch, and I know my PC might glitch. However it could go off without a hitch, and without a webcam, I can stream in my gitch.

So hereā€™s my pitch.

Would anybody witch? I mean watchā€¦

Iā€™ve been messing around a bit with OBS, and trying to find ways to do all the chat integrations and such. Also gonna whip up a home made stream deck for the lulzā€¦

I got my first raid (of 9 people) tonight.

Not bad for my first week. I guessā€¦

About what times do you stream? Or is it just random when you feel like? Have you figured out the software yet? I did read your pageā€¦

Iā€™ve gone as far as linking my Twitch account to my Xbox.

Taking load shedding out of the equation, Iā€™ve been streaming in the evenings, usually around 7pm. Most of my followers are from the Minecraft server I play on, so I try to go live when the server is more busy.

Iā€™ll probably be streaming on weekend afternoons as well, but weā€™ll have to seeā€¦ I might do a stream later today too.I have load shedding from 5pm to 7:15ish, so maybe tonight as wellā€¦

I was going to write my own bot, but Iā€™m struggling with the first hurdle on that so I decided to go with one of the data mining bots for now, and even with that, it wasnā€™t rendering properly when I got new followers.

If I can get 30 new followers in the next 3 weeks, I will make affiliate, but Iā€™m not sure that matters since Twitch doesnā€™t really care about South Africa. If only there was a way to have my account linked to my Canadian residency, but they look at geolocation I think.

Does anyone have any recommendations for things like ā€œStarting soonā€, ā€œBRBā€, ā€œStream endingā€ images? And things like custom emotes and channel points icons?

Iā€™ve heard good things about Canva, but I donā€™t know if the 7-day free trail will be good enough.

Iā€™ve got a few things through StreamElements, but I only set that up until I can get my own bot writtenā€¦ And being not so creatively inclined, I donā€™t think Iā€™m so well versed to make my own graphics.

Sifting through the freebie themes online isnā€™t really working for me at the momentā€¦ Iā€™m open to suggestions.

Iā€™m open to help or assist where I can. Not sure exactly what you would require, what formats, or what sizes you would require these graphics.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Iā€™ve got such a huge list of things I want to get done, I really donā€™t want to ask too much. If I want this channel to succeed, thereā€™s going to need to be some consistency in my graphics/artwork.

Hereā€™s my channel right now

Iā€™m thinking sticking with cyan for the colour theme. Iā€™d like to replace the default background image so it doesnā€™t have my channel name all over it, but I can easily do a solid colour or something for thatā€¦

The title (Specs, Games, etc) can have images used, so Iā€™m thinking maybe some kind of plaque looking thing, and I can slap some of my Disco Bear Dall-E images on them or something. Also going to need to decide on a free font, which I have absolutely no clue aboutā€¦

I got mine on Nerd or Die. It cost a few bucks, but I lack any form of creativity or artistry.

Any idea how often these update? Because my stream last night hasnā€™t been added even though the stats show todayā€™s dateā€¦

And then other achievements it did registerā€¦

Iā€™ll be going live around 5:30pm or so if anyone wants to come chat or lurk
