I don't know what it is but the font on this site looks really bad in my browser.
Yet another reason I block everyone's webfonts. (Designers on OS X: ClearType does not render fonts the same way.)
Most webfonts look OK on windows vista and up.

That seems excessive, perhaps just upgrade to a more progressive font-smoothing algorithm? ClearType is built for lo-res displays (it snaps pixels to a grid rather than smoothing), so as you'd expect it looks like utter crap on a nice monitor. I have heard good things about gditray:

Good to have a proxy around.

#14Very cool! The mashup is really catchy and the author did a great job mixing LMFAO and Psy. The first mashup I remember listening to was the Eminem/Britney Spears mashup ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j98zaF5592c ). It was particularly funny because Eminem had recently dissed Britney Spears, but the ironic thing is that this mashup sounded better than the originals of both songs. The only question I have is how do…
Thank you. :)
Stores like iTunes often carry instrumentals, at least for the singles. There's also acapellas4u.co.uk and Beatport for finding acapellas.

#16How very cool of LMFAO and PSY to celebrate rather than quash his creation.
I was stunned. I never expected that to happen. It was a great honor.
(It was also a little ironic, as there's a copyright dispute on the video coming from LMFAO's label.)

#17Thanks for sharing. That's awesome! I was dreading hearing that they made you take the vid down. Nice. The only technical glitch I minded was at 1:10. Psy's on screen just long enough to open his mouth without any words playing. But I'm a musician and this is a nit. But if you re-edit this ever just thought I'd add this.
Yeah, I'd thought about maybe doing a re-cut. But it's kind of late now. I couldn't replace the existing video, so it'd have to be separate, and nobody would find it. Oh well. Lesson learned for next time!

#18A great candid story of his experience going viral. Could be a little more concise, but still congrats to the guy for stepping up to the plate and crushing it out of the park. So what if it wasn't a technical masterpiece. If he was only intending for this to be a learning experience, I think he should be totally satisfied.
Absolutely satisfied with the response. Learned a lot from this, next time around the technicals should be much tighter (I hope).
