BUTTERFLIES AND OTHER STUFF
OK so I said I needed a break. I do. One of the things I wanted to do was another Youtube video, another was fix my old PC... After 4 attempts at uploading the video I managed it:
[link]I cannot get the quality any better. Everything I do makes the file too long or too big, so I hope you can still manage to enjoy it...
I make the videos in Windows movie maker. It is very easy to do, but time consuming. The music has to be converted to WAV format and I try to get it the right length to fit to the film. This time was nearly impossible. I kept cutting and pasting bits of the song in and out of places. Finding the right length piece where the words fitted was a nightmare. Sorry there is a gap at the end. Originally I was using 2 pieces of music, however I had to scrap the second as the whole thing was way over big. The format has to be changed to DivX as no matter what I do I cannot get anything else to upload to Youtube I could leave it all flipping day...
So here we are 4 attempts later with a fuzzy video and an over edited sound track... Oh well one day I shall learn. I now have 8 videos on Youtube, 7 fractal ones and one I did for the BBC . They get a lot of views. All good publicity for fractal art.
I am going to try uploading to Google Videos and see if I can get better definition.
Last week my old PC went down yet again. I fixed that yesterday. I had lost all my desktop icons and start menu. I tried fixing the registry and got nowhere. However I then found a really useful site with another registry fix and it worked. If this ever happens to any of you. You can see the wallpaper but have nothing else, you can access just about everything by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete, then if you go to File you can select new task and direct your PC where you want to go, like emails... However the most important bit is to get Windows Explorer going again...
[link]This is the most wonderful site where I got information that really did work. I was missing the last letter of Explorer.exe. I added that in the right place, restarted from the Task manager menu and everything was back again. You can save loads of money.
If you are brave enough to go into the registry then it will be a good idea to bookmark this site. The best I have found.
Please send me any feedback on the video.

Never take someone for granted
Hold every person close to your heart
Because you might wake up one day
And realize that you've lost a diamond
While you were too busy collecting stones.
