My name is Hollow! They/Them pronouns.
I am a non-binary person who enjoys gaming and general tom foolery. I often do drag makeup for my streams. I am queer, polyamorous (polyam for short), fat person that has found a love of streaming here on Twitch!
I am in my late 20s. I live in the state of Washington. I like to rave and go dancing, collect manga and anime figurines, and my old ass watched anime in 3 parts on youtube back in the day. If you’re down for my bullshit, come hang!
I use streamlabs and streamelements for my visuals!
Streamlabs OBS is the program that manages my capture card and overlays.
Stream Elements I use for commands, overlays, and my stream pets. This made things a lot easier for me personally because I was overwhelmed trying to make a nice layout for my stream. I was able to use a premade set that made me happy, I didn’t have to worry about art theft, and helped me enhance my layout.
My stream pets are all transparent gif/pngs overlays I made. I used generic converter sites from Google.
Pixelart Series Animated Super Theme by Own3d is my current overlay. The design came with a Chat, Gameplay, Start, BRB, & Ending screen. It also came with notifications pre-set in for raids/follows/etc.. Which I personally changed to meme it up. To the best of my understanding it is completely pre-built for you.
Audio alerts are done through Blerp and SoundAlerts. I chose to make my own but both have a solid database of audios. I use Blerp more because it allows me 50 audios instead of 5, I leave SoundAlerts up for bit audios (jump scares).
For badges I used Gaming visuals, they have a converter for badges/channel points.

Capture Card- Mine is the older model but the company no longer sells it. https://www.amazon.com/AVERYN-Upgraded-Streaming-Compatible-Nintendo/dp/B097D376BL
HDMI Splitter- It works well for the most part, I do have to plug in my console first then my capture card HDMI cord otherwise its widescreen. Be careful how you bend the cord, I had to electric tape mine.

Gaming Chair- This is the most expensive, I received it second hand as a gift.

I use two monitors, two HDMI cords (I prefer they look a little different so I know which goes to my screen and the other to my capture card), and a Dell Optiplex 7040 micro tower. I purchased the computer from an old job so it is designed for office work. However for 25$ it runs well and I can run streamlabs fairly well. It’s not ideal but this is what I have at my disposal.
