<p>Hello friends,  here is the new and&#8230; ahem&#8230;<em> improved</em> Ask a Crafter.</p>
<span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class='youtube-player' width='640' height='360' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/kPnq4fYR4OI?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;' sandbox='allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation'></iframe></span>
<p><span style="line-height:1.5em;">I got a bit </span><span style="line-height:1.5em;">overwhelmed by the comments of </span><a style="line-height:1.5em;" href="http://youtu.be/c-8OaWvE-tU">last weeks webcam AAC</a><span style="line-height:1.5em;"> (to be fair I asked people what they thought rather than say &#8220;take it or leave it&#8221;) so I decided that if everyone wants the &#8220;good camera&#8221;  then the show would be 20 minutes and I just would not answer all the questions on air, I did respond to everyone though.  As I explained in </span><a style="line-height:1.5em;" href="http://youtu.be/oIzQ3xPMtBM">this video </a><span style="line-height:1.5em;">I am not willing to tie up my family&#8217;s computer equipment for a day to render and upload one long video.  I was happy to use a webcam and stream it live to Youtube and answer everyone&#8217;s questions and let it go as long as it may but most people couldn&#8217;t bear the loss of video quality. The third option is that I save myself the hassle and don&#8217;t do it at all.  So watch it, don&#8217;t watch it but please, don&#8217;t tell me how I could do it better. I&#8217;m done asking opinions and advice (although it keeps coming), and I am adopting the &#8220;take it or leave it&#8221; approach, it is the same philosophy I have with cooking in fact and it certainly curbs the whining, well, my whining anyway LOL! I&#8217;ll see you next time and as always happy crafting!</span></p>
