Making a Let's Play: Still Learning, Ten Years Later

This video concept, and several of the ideas that are factored into how I created my Let's Plays are from Chuggaaconroy's video on the same topic! I remember taking notes and filling like, half a notebook while watching this video when it first came out.    • Creating a Let's Play: What You've Ta...  
And the design of my bios and sidebars in Generation 1 are very obviously inspired by designs made by Stephen Georg.    / stephenplays
