YouTube Update September 11, 2011

I got an email from YouTube this weekend telling me that they possibly could be interested in revenue sharing with me for some of my videos. When I submitted my account for acceptance into this program, I received an email of acceptance in just a few hours.
I am now able to submit requests to them to receive revenue from them for videos that meet their requirements. What this means is that in some of my more popular videos that meet YouTube requirements (feature no gameplay or music) you might see advertising in them from now on. The difference with these ads are that I will be getting a cut from them. This is fantastic news as I finally have an opportunity for financial income coming in from the site.
I have over 160 videos on YouTube currently, and plan to make plenty more! You might notice from now on I will have a change in formats for my future YouTube videos. I’m no longer going to use a title sequence and I will have a shorter end credits sequence if I have one at all. I will no longer use any music tracks under fair use. I also am going to refrain from showing gameplay footage in my videos, which means I may no longer do Top 5s or Let’s Plays. What you will probably see in the site are a lot more video discussions on a regular basis!
Thank you for all your support for the site!
