That's one of his selling points actually-when he takes paid gigs he makes it pretty obvious: written disclaimers, bumpers on the vids, talking about how the promo went on his podcasts.

Now that I've taken those classes, I'd like to apply what I've learned. I started using the max wizard template set up for V.S. Express. Once everything is set up it gives me all the…
