so guys, yknow.... no-one hardly supports the site anymore except newcomers who use the site but dont post cos theres no community as far as they can see to join in with...


you mean the regulars didn't chip in ? wtf? I'm reaching my limit and will be taking another slice soon.

As for the community thing, you need some sticky thread explaining the newcomer where he has landed. a sort of faq/history thing.

the design is fine, but yeah slim those buttons, they're all i see when i get to the page (i'm on a 15 inch 640x480) you thought i was deaf? i'm a bit blind too

also prolly it's a good time to slim down the forums now there's a comprehensive search people can use.. it's kinda nice to my way of thinking to have the ability to browse cubase, logic, synth or whatever seperately... but it's prolly better to blend all the synth stuff into one synth-forum, all the pc related stuff inc' s/w to a single pc-forum etc and cut it right down to about 6 sections or so

whaddya think?

If it were me, I'd probably keep separate "Tracks " and "Rant/Drivel" forums, but consolidate the rest down to 2 or 3 like "PC Tech" (all computer hardware & software) "Hardware" (synths, smaplers, mixers etc) and "Technique".

I think the multi-forum stucture worked well when there was more traffic, but seems a bit redundant now - I don't think there had been a posting on the Clavia forum for a year at the start of June.

Anyway, just my $0.02...

Well, I would say:

- "Tracks" and "Music tech" should stay how it is
- specific hardware and software related topics could maybe be merged into one "software specific" one "hardware specific" forum.
- the mixing forum.. well, I dunno, sometimes there are some good discussion going on there, so I would leave that intact, or maybe change it to "techniques" or "tips and tricks" or whatever...

Drums, guitars, DJ, noticeboard, Theory, they're pretty specific, and not much is going on there, but they don't do any harm either.

my 2c...

Hmmm, fuss bother and itch.

I preferred either version to the:

The connection has timed out


The server at www.7161.com is taking too long to respond.


* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

that I'm currently getting. Why has no-one else mentioned this? Is it only me? Paranoia creeping in...

I take back my comments about the boxes...they're just perfect! I've not got a static IP, so how do you know it's me? I've deleted all cookies/temps/etc. Still it's not there. I've tried Soundclick but it's not the same...Channel 4 was a droop...do I really have to tart myself about the web looking for an alternative fix?

Getting cold clammy and shakey man!

Well,

a) the button for the forums is teenytiny Why?


and the buttons for the sections are

a) a bit TOO BIG
b) A bit obscure.. prime cuts, comps ?

why not make them the more like the dance electronice/rock/world thingies?

and add in a Forums Button!

I agree, cutting down the number of forums is a good idea.. concentrate the chat dude!

I've also done some tweaking on the server and haven't seen any '7161 died' emails in my inbox for a fair few hours... which is nice...

And YEAH, random tracks! Latest tracks! If you cut down the massive killer gigantobuttons a bit...

And, a LOGOUT link would be good.


And 'My Favourite artists' list that other people can see...
;)
