Gypsy Basics – #1 in Gypsy Video Series

Gypsy, Gypsy Videos, How to, Joy's Life Videos

Hi Friends!  This is the first in a series of Gypsy videos I’m making.  This one is Gypsy Basics.  If you want to know how to get started with your Gypsy, how to link cartridges and some tips about using the Gypsy this video is for you.  I hope you enjoy it! 😀

This is filmed in HD, so if you want to watch it in HD, first press the play button. After you press play, you’ll see a new button between the volume and the screen expand buttons.  The new button gives you the choice to view the video in 360p, 480p and 720p. The 720p is HD. 😉

    Wow, I did learn something new--I didn't know you could do a full screen preview. I am going to grab my gypsy and give it a try. I look forward to seeing more on the Gypsy.

    Wow! I just found your site and I love it! I've been thinking about getting the Gypsy but couldn't find much info on actually using it....until now. This great video might just convince me to take the Gypsy plunge....of course additional videos could just 'seal the deal'. Thanx for your GREAT site.

      Hey Joy (I sound like I'm talking to myself, LOL!), It does come with 1 stylus which you'll probably find already inserted in the Gypsy. (Top left hand side ;) ) I think you're really going to like it! Congrats on your new Gypsy and that great price! ~Joy~
