I'm seeing what happens when the colorful border isn't there.

I like it as a "branding" thing per-series, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't think it looked like a bit too much, and kind of messy, when on the channel's videos tab, and when the progress bar is across the bottom of a thumbnail.

It's #Halloween.
Let's party.

Got a couple more videos coming at you later today, but quite happy with the output over the past week!

I'm thinking that, for the next little while, Saturdays and Sundays will have no videos - so you can catch up! 😉

It'll also give me time to go through your comments, and prep for the week ahead!

Throw some aviaries into the Nevada desert in Jurassic World Evolution 3 and suddenly you're playing Surviving Mars!

Here's an update on what's going on with me.

TL;DR -
I'm not going anywhere, other than to speak to some doctors and push for the treatment and help that I need, to get back to being who I know I want to be.

Mental health is a bitch, for everyone, but we've got this, all of us. 💛

... I was today years old when I learned that the colors I've been using on YouTube for the past while are shocking close to Tinder's branding...

I'm really enjoying #Battlefield6! :)

Been enjoying #skate.

It's missing some of what made the originals great, but the foundation's there.

~$10 for the Premium Season Pass isn't awful, especially if you're vibing with the otherwise-free game.

~$40 for an Isaac Clarke bundle is fucking wild. This was a cheatcode in Skate 3. Not cool.

I didn't see a trip to the USA in my immediate future, but here we are... #TheBandGHOST

I upset the Battlefield fans with this one.

Anything that's more of a one-off will just use the full gradient from the channel icon. If something becomes a series, it'll be changed to another colour.

So basically, keep an eye on that Town to City thumbnail. It'll change at some point. 😉

The rounded corners are because someone at YouTube found out that CSS allows you to define a border-radius, and has been obsessed with it ever since.

Had some feedback over the last few months about some thumbnails, especially Cities: Skylines and Transport Fever, looking similar and being hard to tell apart.

Going to start using colours from the current icon (where possible) as a border for each series, so it's easier to tell 'em apart. :)

Needed somewhere to put my Papa V mask for a little while. Turns out Chriper is the perfect fit! @citiesskylines.paradoxinteractive.com #TheBandGHOST

Since I've been a grouch on social media today, here's a rough demo of me singing Lachryma, harmonies and all.

Remember when I talked about my office hitting 35C and higher recently?

Fairly sure the temps have caused my GPU to burn out. Those black boxes all over Task manager (and occasionally elsewhere) are typically a guarantee that your GPU is on it's last legs.

So that's fun.

Been spending some time learning about masks in OBS, and how to use them to apply a blur behind sources. Kind of a knock-off "Liquid Glass," with no displacement map.

While not super fancy, everything in this video was done in OBS, in real-time.

That green alert needs to be brighter though.

Controversial Opinion...

I like the video games that I like. :)

Dieting is hell...
You have no idea how much I miss chocolate biscuits, pasta, mountains of cheese, and fried food...

It's working though! :)
