Just a quick update..... I need to explain some video info. I was using a video company called Veoh. I choose them because their videos played in higher quality and they had a family filter.
But, the family filter stopped working. My videos played okay but the content shown afterwards was shocking to say the least. I contacted them several times and explained to them that children watched my videos but I failed to make them fix the family filter. Anyhow, my plan was to move those videos and then close my account. But, yesterday I couldn't take it anymore and I deleted my account. Some of those videos are not available on You Tube, but, this week I'll load them and get them back on my site. For now you'll see a box that says video not available but I'll work on it asap!!
Sorry I have to post something so negative on my blog, I hate doing that and I don't usually do it. But, sometimes by sharing your story you can help others. Thanks for understanding!!

OH MY GOSH Angie - I totally know what your referring to. I thought it was just on my end when I finished watching one of your video's last week and I was shocked at what some of the other selections were.....(sorry I didn't post something-I was sure that you would NEVER allow some of those video's to be linked to your videos and again-thought for sure it was something that was wrong from my end)-Guess not.....so glad you were able to disconnect - and we will wait for you to be able to reload your fabulous videos back to a saver location.
Sorry you had to go through this. Kadie

Hi Angie.. I never watch anything outside of anyone's blog because I have heard of the bad stuff that is on their site. I think that Lauren Meader had/has the same problem and has posted about not watching it on their site. Why does things like this happen today. thank you for taking the time to do all this work. many of us appreciate it so very much. Pam

It's amazing what people get a thrill out of. There's people sick enough out there that enjoy that type of stuff. I love to watch your videos and hope you can get things all back going again. So sorry about that.

Thanks for letting us know, I'm new to this and wondered what was happening when the other stuff would come up. Good luck, looking forward to seeing your videos again. They are really helpful.

Angie -
Thanks for making the change and standing your ground. I was appalled at the content I saw when I googled a topic and one of your videos came up. I can't believe they don't filter that stuff. It is definately not something I would want my family to see!

I happened to me once when viewing another person's video from Veoh. I was shocked to say the least. Thank you for being conscientious and for taking the time and effort to correct this problem. God bless you for being a inspiration both in crafts and in life.

Thank you for doing that. I was appalled at what I was seeing on the side while watchign your videos, I thought maybe it was just me! Awesome to not deal with a company like that!

I think I would have done the same thing!
