How do I upload a voice clip?

Enaithor · 5th Sep 2011, 06:29 AM

I'm not sure actually, I haven't tried yet because I've only just recorded mine :P

Kerze · 5th Sep 2011, 06:36 AM

Anyone know how to change .wma into .mp3?

EDIT

Ok, now I have an mp3 but it's too long to do the whole thing.

Enaithor · 5th Sep 2011, 06:43 AM

zamzar.com will do it

fiddledeedee · 5th Sep 2011, 06:46 AM

To upload a voice clip, Go Advanced with your post. In the top row of icons, there is a paperclip; click on it. You can then upload an MP3 file from your computer. I havent got a good place to record anythung, though.

Enaithor · 5th Sep 2011, 06:54 AM

That is a good question, maybe both if you can be bothered, but pick either if you cba to do that much :P

Super Trouper · 5th Sep 2011, 07:24 AM

So, I'll be uploading my accent in English. I'll upload in my native language later. Please disregard my annoying voice. It's not like this in real life >.<

Enaithor · 5th Sep 2011, 07:32 AM

Your voice is fine! :P
I'm trying to figure out a way to get a 3.5MB mp3 file less than 1MB :/

Kerze · 5th Sep 2011, 07:32 AM

*shrug* I got bored. xD

Fear the evil voice. ._. I despise my voice, rofl. Though, if you wouldn't after being called Ma'am or *insert girls name* every day while answering phones, then I want to know your secret. :P

I apologize if I speak too fast. xD I often speed up my talking without noticing. I often get asked to repeat myself, lol.
