Streamable is deleting the videos soon (due to inactivity) so I'm moving them to youtube. I've never done any youtube before so I don't know what I'm doing.

And I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a scene to use and try to get it up. I'll be hunting on my own but if you've got something you want let me know.

I want to learn how make this an emoji

I was playing around with 15.ai and I put some dialogue from a thing I'm working on in it. It came out completely perfect. So I made a tiny video.

Art by me.

Edit: I've been censored. This kind of thing happens to me a lot actually.
