A Couple Questions About Annotations...

I was wondering how to put that nifty little "subscribe" icon in the annotations. I've done annotations alot, but I could never figure out how that's being done.

Also, I can see that some people put a link there to watch the next video, and it's actually a little square screenshot of that video. How is that done?

Thanks!
 
KGATV, thanks for that link. I hadn't seen that section before. That answers part of my question, and now I see that it's not really possible to do what I thought I could do; it would only be used to promote one video for the whole channel.

Bunny, thanks. I know about the links though. But I've seen people actually have a subscribe icon in their videos and I'm not sure how they're doing it.

You put it into your edit and then throw an annotation over it.
 
Dude, go to your video manager, go to the dropdown arrow next to the "edit" below the video title and click "annotations". now click the "add annotation and the best one is a spotlight for what you're looking for, choose the colours and then you can put text on it in the options below, choose the time you want it to go from and to and click "link" below that and then you can have the option to subscribe by putting your youtube username in there and saving than publishing! i really hope this helps!
 
Thanks. I was actually looking at it this morning and finally saw that stuff. There's Subscribe, Channel and other things. Glad that's there.
