in #dtube7 years ago (edited)


N/B: Please do ensure you not only watch the video tutorial but also go through the text tutorial to gain complete knowledge on how to use dtube as the video might not be clear enough for beginners due to the fact that i recorded it with my mobile device and not a personal computer, also I wasn't able to include certain informations but those were sorted out in the text tutorial, thanks!

So I was home few hours ago and a friend I introduced to steemit @soulsisters called me and asked how I upload videos on steemit so I told her I was going to do a tutorial right away so she and others who do not know how to upload videos on steemit would be able to learn from the post...

Hi @crystalll . I just realised you're part of the team behind Steemexchanger. I'd like to know the code on how you previewed a user’s steemit profile(wallet). I'd appreciate if you help me with this.
