you considered crerating a YouTube channel and uploading the videos there? Then you could simply copy and paste the link here for the original videos?

I do it too, but with longer videos, when they're 5 or 6 seconds long, I convert them to GIFs.

This only tells me that you need to take longer tank videos. You know, fish close ups, coral close ups, near FTS's and far FTS's, wide FTS's and narrow FTS's, front FTS's and side FTS's and include some cool commentary. Just a thought... 😉
 
Good morning everyone, and Happy Wednesday! Going to attempt making a made-from-scratch Dutch Apple Pie. I've done apple pies in the past, but never a Dutch one (nor have I done a homemade pie crust).

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Tomorrow is also a time for heartache for a lot of families. The first family without certain family members being there, or maybe it is a time of being reminded that their family is broken. I just wanted to let everyone know, yes, not every family is perfect, and yes, it is hard having Thanksgiving when family members are no longer with us. However, let's use tomorrow to remember the blessings we have experienced over the year. Even though your family is going through a civil dispute, maybe you are thankful that you are still alive and still have a roof over your head. Maybe you are thankful that you got to help a homeless person out earlier in the year. Let's use tomorrow as a day of giving thanks, amongst potential heartache and troubles we may be facing.

Good morning Bailey!
Good luck with the Dutch apple pie my friend.
We all have so much to be Thankful for! Don't forgive to GIVE thanks as well. It is a small gesture, but will mean so much to so many!
 
Ok, crew has their assignments. It's my day off. Back to bed for me! Good morning! See y'all later!
