ok, at the moment this is only in 7161 admin

checkout the homepage admin section...... new templates are implemented and they are way better'n the old ones

new homepages come with podcasting, RSS blog and a dedicated forum (which you can delete posts if logged in to 7161)

the whole other homepage admin has also been tweaked and now the image-gallery section and editing colours etc is all in easy to handle dedicated pages

these new homepage and gallery edit sections can be selected from admin only after applying a new homepage template....

ok, it works BUT there may be bugs IF you created a homepage ages ago back when we had the very old v1 template which looked shite

ABOUT THE NEW TEMPLATES

there's 2 choices right now... once thats all beta tested we can add more easily at anytiome so there'll be plenty coming along for more choice

you can choose template-1 or 2 - Both are fully colour-editable and also allows an image or FLASH banner to be added

or

tEMPLATE 1 ALSO HAS 26 FIXED TEMPLATES YOU CAN SWITCH BETWEEN WITH A SIMPLE SELECT AND UPDATE BUTTON - THESE FIXED TEMPLATES CANT BE COLOUR EDITED AT ALL BUT ARE AN EASY FIX

shit caps, damn

um.....

the second template will also have 26 non colour-editable variations added soon

anyways, they are a huge improvement, and frankly although we cant compete for site traffic, they anihilate myspace pages for appearance, and still no adverts anywhere

All your added news displays on the opening page btw so you can use the front-page as a blog which appears under your main intro profile text & user-image

here's my test one which i set the colours and banner for:

http://www.7161.com/~k

this ones a fixed template:

http://www.7161.com/~test_dj

anyways, if you wanna test it just mail info@7161 with any problems

cheers

when setting everything to black (in the old template style i had) i loose some text.

Also, what happened to the albums? there nowhere to be found in the media section.

In the top menu it goes: home, media, gigs. The gigs part looks funny, like something is missing

Ah ! see you've put back the albums, nice

well so far, so good mate, it's lovely.

Minor things: The presentation texte on the home page shouldn't be justified completely to the left, i'd prefer it centered myself.

How can i change the type ? It's not to me liking

(i know ,what a picky git...)

cos it has tracks and mixes depending of you are artist/band/deejay or deejay and artist (some are) plus yes, video can go there too (gotta add that)

do you mean no display date for news/blogs? can fix that easy

Also, i think it would be nice if track pages had the banner and menu, or at least a back it would be clearer (i know a simple click on back in your browser does the trick, but still, it's pretty standard to have some kind of navigation built in every page on a web site)
