There is none. Both sites are virtually dead. Tdarcos' revolting food videos are the only reason either of these sites still exists. You know that to be true.

"Ben you know it's true, oooh oooh oooh, I film food. Yes you know it's true, oooh oooh, oooh, I eat food. " And like Milli Vanilli, I didn't sing that either.
"Oooh, oooh ooioh, oooh, oooh oooh, you know this, mess is, true." - Spandau Buffet. Had to mention "mess" after doing a cooking video on making "Slop."

I have a cooking video making waffles. It's been sitting in the can since I made it back in 2009, if you can believe it. I know it's that old because (1) once I saw it I remembered making it; (2) the video is done over at my old place where I got evicted and I've been living here for over three years.
I need to edit the video to make it watchable (nobody wants to watch the dead parts where you sit and wait for things to finish), the unedited film of making, mixing and cooking the waffles from beginning to end is 15 minutes. Only problem is I've found post-processing takes about 1 hour per minute of finished video, it's a lot of work, as I noted over on JC about your defunct radio program with respect to my work on a web comic.

I did this cooking video three years ago, and forgot I had it. Is reasonable, I suppose. On my other computer I ran a DOS directory process to see how many files were on my other computer, machine name Optiplex. I wrote the result on a note on my wall:

763,445 files, 63,197 folders.
Easy enough to forget a few things.

Consider that a listing of just the file names, averaging two columns and 100 items per page, would take over 7500 pages. For one computer. I have since collected a lot more files. A lot of it is resource material; I'm making a game right now and sometimes I need icons and such. I collect lots of images, icons, pictures, etc. so I have them. I love SVG files, they resize beautifully for larger or smaller images and you don't get resolution problems. Plus they're text-based so you can actually examine them in a text editor as well as the typical drawing program like Inkscape.

        You got it wrong, it's moving deck chairs on the Titanic, not polishing brass NT by Tansin A. Darcos (TDARCOS) 03/31/2013, 7:47am PDT NEW
