https://www.youtube.com/user/animatornetworkOnly problem is there aren't any animations being made these days that are good enough to have their own video. All the content that comes out of here now are shorts on a white bg.
Lately I've seen a couple videos posted that would be worth putting on our channel. LordPivot and Flame's DDG are good examples of what we could upload. They don't have to be works of art. I mean we have The Worst Animation Collabs on there, I don't think you can get much worse than that. I think youtube is very important when it comes to getting our name out there. I feel like right now we should be uploading more content rather than worry about the quality of the content. People want to see something that looks nice, but I think youtube's viewer base cares more about who uploads new stuff everyday rather than who uploads works of art every 3 months. So uploading some finished videos would be a good idea, even if we only uploaded 1 a week. I mean there are some decent animations posted on here, but I think the main problem is that only 1/3 of them are being flashed with sound effects and we don't exactly have someone who is willing to flash a new video every week.

I think we held off doing this because we didn't know if DarkAsshole owned the rights to the videos. But when I think about it, the only thing he owns is the animator.net intro. All the content in the DarkDemon Collabs were made by the members of the community. If we just stripped the animator.net intro from the DD collabs and threw in our new one I don't think we would have any issues. And I highly doubt DarkAsshole is going to sue us over a couple pivot videos, or even notice we uploaded the videos. The dude probably doesn't even log onto Animator.net, the place still looks like shit.
TLDR: I'm not sure how I feel about uploading the old DDC's. I don't even think they would get that many views with our measly 434 subscribers lol. Maybe we should wait on doing that, and if we manage to get like 50,000 subscribers on TDDchannel, we can then think about uploading them, when we know more people will see them in their subscription feeds. I do want to start uploading individual people's animations though. If we can get permission from the animators, I think we'll start doing that and see how it works out.
