    Question

    Keep it up..........The more we play, the easier it becomes.

    That video, reminded me of my oldest daughter (41) a few years ago, wasn't long before she was playing in a country group.

    I still can't get it to work
    This error thing pops up and says about entering a URL and entering a title.
    I tried it a couple different ways.
    How exactly do I get it to work?

    Could this be from youtube being to slow? But you were able to link it. I tried many ways and they were a pain and none worked for me

    Be sure to allow pop-ups through (presumably) Internet Explorer

    Click the http:// button. Depending on your browser you may then have to click the yellow bar near the top of the page to allow scripted windows. Paste the url you are linking to then hit enter, type the name you want to give the link and then enter again.
    It should work. I just did for your Little Brown Jug video and it worked fine.

    HALLELUJAH!
    I think I just figured it out.
    You have to write something prior to the link and I did it without using that button.

    When it pops up you enter the url, then you give it a title. I usually cut and paste the url.

    I was able to see that one, and I went and played all of them.

    I am still working on the courage to post a video of me. I have little problem playing in front of a mike or a camera, but the idea that the video will appear in cyber space, and be floating around the web for ever, that intimidates me a bit.

    I noticed that you did several videos without your head showing, but the later ones you face is in there. What changed?

    I ask because my thinking is that I would not have my face in the camera for my web posting. But perhaps I would 'get over it'.

    Hi Mike
    My computer would not allow me to copy and paste to that pop up.
    I just wrote something in the reply first then copied the URL from youtube and pasted it below it then hit the Add Reply button and it worked (much faster and easier)

    Hi Jeff
    Great Questions.
    Playing in front of a camera is intimidating for most people (me encluded). I found out from corresponding with some others that post videos that they do many takes also. I do play much better then what you see in my videos so far.
    I started showing my face in my last two videos because I had several friends ask about seeing it and sense in the near future I will be posting videos of me playing other insturments and reciting poems I would be showing it soon anyway.
