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

Thanks so much! You rock my world

I was keeping it quiet until I get a few things set up, but it is highly appreciated. Grats on 1st too!

How does the channel point icon look? I whipped something up quick in blender, but it doesn’t look all that great at 28x28px…

If you know it’s meant to be a disco ball it looks fine. Checked it in the Twitch app on my phone:

Will have a look on a bigger screen later.

Thanks for the screenshot. I’m still not entirely happy with it, so I grabbed an actual photo of one from the public domain and it looks much better.

I think the problem I have with the one I made is the extremely small colour palette. I’m much happier with the new one.

I might do an art stream today of me attempting to draw some emotes in Gimp today… :thinking:

Yip, that’s definitely a disco ball now.

When you’re broke and have very little drawing ability:

I imported into inkscape to draw some nice vector lines, but… I don’t know enough of the interface, so I called it a night

How was it?

The first hour or so was pretty slow, but then things picked up. I had more fun just being a cat and had a few moments where I just sat there laughing knocking stuff off walls for no reason.

What? That’s awesome man!

Sorry I haven’t been supporting all that much, things have been a bit hectic of late.

Nothing to worry about. That’s probably why the gift sub went to you, to try and get you back on the platform… Algorithms yo!

One of the youtubers from my minecraft server dropped 5 gift subs last night, and there were only 3 people in the stream.

Right now that means no ads, but emotes are on the way!

We’ll see how this new schedule works out. I might still switch it up a little, and I may do some unscheduled streams here and there, but you gotta start somewhere, right?

Do you find that streaming gives you a sense of accomplishment, accountability or commitment to actually play through games?

No, I rely on EA’s stupid unlocking mechanics for that.

I kid! I kid! Ya, it definitely does. Even in things like Minecraft where I was building projects that I kept putting off. Not that I’ve finished them yet, but… lol

Like last night I got stuck in Stray for a minute and wanted to give up, but even though I only had 3 viewers, I was like “I gotta get through this”.

I love that, that’s great to hear.

Going to try and get Twitch integration with Minecraft going for tonight. Hopefully I can at least get some interaction going, specifically using channel points and bits to help or screw with me in game! If all goes well, I’ll be live around 7pm

I’ll try chime in but this evening is hectic with loadshedding and other family stuff going on.

Sounds good. No worries if you can’t make it.

I have an event tomorrow with a bunch of streamers raiding each other, and my slot is right at the start of loadshedding :expressionless: Hopefully someone will swap with me
