YotaTech 7 Year Anniversary Video now online

Finally got off my butt to work on this.
Weather is cooler today and overcast, and I got a good nights sleep

I am an amateur at making vids, I mainly make them for camping gear reviews of equipment I have bought.

Video was overdue as the seven year anniversary date was May the 21st.
I used all but two very tiny pictures from the picture submission thread.
They were to small and grainy when blown up.

Video also on the front page

Also available at YouTube in HD full screen by hitting the HD button and then full screen there.

Needed more pics, but not a lot submitted.

I took the raw WMV file and used Nero 8 to convert it to a DVD file, then burned it to a DVD.

Video looks amazing full screen on my new 40" TV.

i like at the beginning how the music is all hard, and your expecting (or at least i was) some sick yota to be all hung up on some obstacle. but instead it was a picture of some tomato's in an arb fridge lol.

but all in all, i think cory did a fine job!

I think it was five to six each.
It still worked out to a seven minute vid though.
YouTube limits you to ten minutes, so we could have squeezed in a few more.

Thanks.
Hey, that was my tomato
May it rest in piece, it was eaten last summer.

Also I did not mean for my pics to start out in the vid first, but mine were numbered from the way I host them on my server, so they popped up first before the others.
A few of mine popped up later in the video too as they were named something else.

There was a total of eighty pictures in the video.

That first song too I crank it up whenever I am in my rig or at work in a rig (I have Sirius sat in one of my work rigs), so I just had to include it
Bought it from iTunes yesterday morning.
I like how the newer version of iTunes now lets you take a song you bought there and convert it to an MP3.
It is about time they let you do that, as when it is under their file format, you can not use it elsewhere.

I thought about adding some cool THX intros like you see in the theater, maybe next time

Great slide show. It's been a long time since I posted on this board. To think I was one of the original members when this board was established from the old days at outdoorwire 4x4 .

Anyway, just want to say hi to everyone from Japan. I had been stationed here since Oct 2005 and won't be going back stateside until at least Decmber 2011.
