Hit me up for suggestions

Streaming audio would be sensational.

However the one thing thats missing which is easy to fix would be a General Bullshit section of the forums. Every forum has them, and they are heavily used. We all need a place to just talk $hit and have some fun. Tends to keep your other dedicated areas on track as the b$ all stays in one place

A link to "recent posts" is always handy and promotes more forum action.

It would just be a kind of search based on time I guess. :idea:

Ok, I take that back - I found it

"view posts since last visit" top right on forum mainmenu.

I can change that soon...

Just working on google at the moment....

General crap section is up... The streaming audio will be down the track..

The only problem with streaming audio, is licences etc.. the only audio we can stream is unsigned bands demos, with their consent.. If anyone knows the legal side of these things, or nows how to, and how much, give me a buzz

Streaming audio would do nothing for a 56k'er for me, but a small rotating mp3 section would be nice. Good work with the feedback and asking the community for suggestions.

well we can make the quality of files smaller to suit 56k. But of course, sounds less quality...

Give it a few weeks and you will all be moshing to the forums

mp3's would be awesome, just like 5 from many bands, so if people havent heard them they can get samples of albums, stuff like that.
