Hey, I have just started making videos but I don't have an editor. I know you can edit on youtube, but it's a little confusing to me. is there a free video editor out there that is simple to use? I really appreciate it

Don't use Windows Live Movie Maker. I've made a video with it, and the result was crappy (Link) How ever, when I mad it with Sony Vegas Movie Studios ($50), the result was this: link. I know that SVMS costs $50 bucks, but here are some of my other projects made with SVMS: link1 link2. For free editors, I suggest Lightworks. Editors using Lightworks have produced numerous internationally renowned and Oscar and Emmy Award award-winning feature films and television programs, including The King's Speech, Martin Scorsese's Hugo and The Departed, Mission Impossible, Pulp Fiction, Braveheart and Batman. I've never used it, though. Here's a list of movie editors: link Go to the bottom, look at Target Market, it offers prices and stuff. I also suggest one that have a linear timeline, the ones on Window MM is really hard to work with. Hope this helps.

I'm not really sure whats so crappy about the WLMM version. The quality? Or the lack of effects? o_O The quality is probably just due to improper settings.
If you're looking for free and simple, it doesn't get better than windows live movie maker. You don't have very much control over the effects and stuff, but its as straight forward as it gets. Especially for gaming videos it works nicely. Everything is super easy to use because it tells you how to do all of them whereas when I opened up sony vegas pro it was a big screen of questions. But if you want to spend a few bucks I wouldn't say it would hurt, but from how it sounds I think WLMM would do just fine.
