-Money contributions, although I definately don't expect people to donate money.
-Obtaining copyrights would be nice, so instead of having hotlinks to illegal sources we'll have them ourselves.

Thanks very much!

I might try and contibute some news or good links to other sites containing interviews with bands, artists (anything that may be of interest).
Also, if you have some kind of rare, live, bootleg sections, I could try to contribute to that as well.

Thanks for the consederation schizo, but I'm not sure I'm witty or funny enough to make fun of bad music and it be interesting.

Oh yeah, inhuman, I guess if I even plan on doing this (whether it's executed or still pending) I should give you me name and email adress?

I've been working on a review, "NYC G+F Revisited", is the working title.. can I post it on here just to get a few tips on how I could improve?

You two should do a piece where you priase the Village People.

i'll be happy to write about whatever you tell me to write about.

Alex's Trip

09.27.2006 09:59 PM

Even the Smashing Pumpkin's reunion?

That'd probably funny, actually.

Cantankerous

09.27.2006 10:01 PM

oh i will write about it. i didn't say i would write something nice.

HaydenAsche

09.27.2006 10:04 PM

Haha. Cantankerous would be a perfect writer.

Jade and I working together would be fucking amazing.

Alex's Trip

09.27.2006 10:11 PM

So you'll do it now, for free?

Cantankerous

09.27.2006 10:12 PM

well yeah. this would be fun.

Alex's Trip

09.27.2006 10:16 PM

If anyone makes fun of your name I'll ban them from coming to the site. But if you really insist, I can give you a fake one. And for sure Nomadic, I'd be glad to add you.

I just got the Khanate piece up last night, it's an excellent read! Thanks everyneurotic!

ha ha,i am not afraid of people making fun of my surname,i just plain don't like how it sounds ;) .

I think I've thought of an idea for Jade and I's collaboration. We could talk about an album on AIM and just post our conversation. It'll be like those fashionistas talking about bad dresses on the red carpet.

Inhuman

09.28.2006 01:55 PM

haha, I can probably set that up for you eventually. It's going to take a long time until the entire site is up. I'll probably have the forum up tonight, and I'll be finished setting up the forum by next week. I'll fix it so you can all get acoounts on it tonight, then make it cool with time

my review is about half done, ive been working on it alot. my mom found it and was very dissapointed to see "fucking" in it.

but obscenity maybe the only way to describe how i feel.

09.28.2006 02:12 PM

I've got 2-3 more reviews that should be ready soon. I've already sent one for the Tu Mi Piaci cd.

my i suggest to move the "message board thing" near the mailing list form?
this would be much more intuitive: visitors would think "oh,i'll subscribe to their mailing list...oh,and the forum too,the link is right there!".instead of having to scroll down the page to see that "message board thing" (sorry,i'm not making fun of it,i just don't know how to call that).

As for the forum... I can't decide what to do with the topics. Personally, I don't like diversifying genres and making a single genre every sub-topic, I prefer it be like this forum where we would have something like:

Music
-Underground Music Discussion
-Music Sharing

GroundWater
-Site Suggestions
-Error's / Bugs

Other
-Off-Topic
-Artwork
-Test Area

I have it by genres right now; I think I'll go change it.

Have the 'Other' section go before the site stuff...

I'm not sure whether it's the font itself or its size, but the text is pretty difficult to read against the background, it seems to somehow blur.

Everyneurotic

09.29.2006 09:32 AM

i thought it only happened in my computer but yeah, some of the commas and stuff get lost in the background, you have to try hard to read thru.

!@#$%!

09.29.2006 12:21 PM

that's stuck because it's the photoshop

us sytles, styles for font size and color and background, not photoshop!

oh i wish i had time to do this but i'm working already on 3 websites (& getting paid) but i swear drop the photoshopped text & put real text & style it.

anyway, go i must...

ok i have finally decided that i'm going to do review "back vase" by prurient for my second review... working on it now...

schizophrenicroom

09.29.2006 03:35 PM

I'm working on my NYC G+F thing and a review of the Like Young's new album. I'll send the latter over tomorrow night.

Oh yeah.. Rob.. for the top 10s, can I do like, a "blogosphere wrap-up" on Fridays where I pick ten songs I find that I think are kickass?

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 07:27 PM.
