riondrum Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Hi All-I’m Rion of riondrum- obviously, I’m a drummer, and looking to record drums for people! I’m new on fiverr, and am looking for any suggestions people may have to getting gigs going. There are a LOT of drummers on here, and I would like to figure out how to stand out. I’ve been a professional drummer all my adult life, but since COVID, have lost all my paying gigs. Fortunately, I completed the construction of my home studio, and am set up to record drums from home. Now I just have to get people to know I’m here and ready to record.One question- I uploaded my video on Thursday afternoon, and it’s now Monday, but the video still says ‘under review’. That’s several days over 24hrs- anyone else had trouble with their videos taking a long time? Any suggestions? is there anyone I can call?Also, when I went to a private browser, and tried to search for my user name: riondrum, no users were found…? But my profile says “active”… so I’m not sure what’s going on there.Thanks in advance for any help-Rion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks ok on my computer (prior to upload) and even looks ok on my iphone- but on either Chrome or Safari on my mac it looks out of sync, as you mentioned. Can I ask how/where you’re viewing? it might help me figure out what’s going on…I’ll spend some time at the links you suggested, thank you so much!rion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imagination7413 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I use Chrome, though I opened your profile in incognito mode. (Also, I played in from the thumbnail. I didn’t go into the actual gig.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
