Nice tutorial, cheers!
“my phone is ringing again… It’s three in the morning!” Normally unedited
tutorial videos annoy the crap out of me. Yours, is funny.
I love the skip my ramblings button, too- it is brilliant.
Whether or not i like the rambling would depend on the rambling content in
each rambling instance. I will most likely like some of it but not all of
it. If you’re not sure about whether or not you should include rambling in
your videos or just “cut to the chase”… just give ppl an easy out. I like
your idea of adding a skip-able annotation that’s click-able. This would
definately ensure that even if someone doesn’t want to hear the rambling
then they wouldn’t mind having it in there if they could just easily click
to get past that (Awful) part. lol jk about the Awful… had 2 throw that
in there for a quick easy ;pun
Aside from rambling, I really like how you break things down to a very
simplistic bare bones 4 line structure in index.php. If the rest of the
tutorial videos follow suit like this, I think this tutorial series will be
pretty good since you remove all the other clutter like this. Thanks!
For more info on removing clutter aka theism… check my playlists and
Ramble On! xd!
its fine I appreciate that you are not rushing past the steps so its easier
to follow along
I like your rambling, don’t worry. It makes WordPress bareable…
Good job, Austin. Greetings from Nairobi.
The rambling is just fine. It adds personality and gives me more time to
type in the examples. Thanks!
Hello I am Arjan from the nederlands, I am disabald because off that i like
the way you show and explain the tings. keep it up
“YOU WANT TO BE HERE!” – ahahaha!!!!
just subscribed, thanks for being such a good tut.
Just Subscribed hope that boosts your motivation. Great tutorials.
Technology is such an important issue for OUR community! I see you
Austin…Keep up the great work!
awesome video tuts Austin. Very generous of you, much appreciated by me for
one as I love learning this stuff.
Your doing a great job! Adding the personality that you do is great. Don’t
be a boring number cruncher. Keep in the tid bits. I have been working with
wordpress for a while now but am just getting in to the design aspect. I
have closed other videos because they are boring. Keep the random infos and
rants. Makes your seem real.
I already setup my localhost with xampp and got wordpress working on it, so
it would be nice for an indication of where I should be in the tutorial if
I already had wordpress working. Besides that, I like all of it, including
the rambling parts!
ramble on man, it keeps your videos from becoming like everyone else’s …
just maybe not SO much. LOL, thanks
good job
Thank You!! Your toutorial is great. It could be recorded a bit louder,
but aside that it is awsome. Simple explained. Great job.
Ramble away – good stuff!
Some talky talky is fine… if its all business my eyes get heavy, lol
You could disable application voice, it’s a little annoying. Good work.
Great videos. very informative and so far spot on. I do like the rambling
too!
Keep it up. Only good videos I have found so far! 5 stars. Thank you!
very late but i luv the rumbling. thats what makes u different and
interesting.
