More online videos & royalty free images

Hello!

The following resources have been added to the site:

Using ready made online videos:

  • Open2.net - Creative Archive A-Z of video This content from the Open University is provided for you to use free of charge under the terms of the Creative Archive licence.

  • Woopid - A nice collection of "How 2" guides covering various software applications.

Royalty Free Images

  • WP Clipart - The archive currently has 23,872 images, covering thousands of subjects.

    A significant portion of them are in lossless formats. The site is organized into categories, but if casual browsing fails to find you the perfect gem you've been searching for there is always keyword based searches.

    You can even download the entire collection as a single archive, making it easier to use offline.
This will be the last update of the year so have a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.


Cheers!



Paul.

How to embed high quality YouTube videos

Hello!

I've added a new page to the YouTube Tools section called "How to embed high quality YouTube videos".


It shows you how you can tweak the embed code of any YouTube video to show the footage in high quality and without the newly added "search box" that's appearing at the top of every embedded video.

eg:

Normal Video






Tweaked "High Quality" video




I hope this is useful to you.

Cheers!

Paul.
