As you've probably seen I've finally changed the front page
The old page was already bothering me for a long time, and since I had to put the Tune of the Month thingy there I figured I'd get rid of the stupid intro text too
There is now also a box there with a track that urgently needs to be reviewed, so don't hesitate, have a listen and give some feedback!!

Maybe put a note there saying which month the tune is from so that people can notice when it's updated and stuff?

Real good update!
This will make the site even more "awake" I think.

I see you've changed the look of the home/forum/listen etc buttons on top of the page. I like the old ones better, mainly because they were bigger. A matter of personal taste ofcourse.
(Maybe surya could make some new buttons fitting the style of the new headline he made?)

I'm going to redesign the entire logo / banner / navigation block anyway.
Just take some time getting used to the small buttons, I bet you'll get the hang of it after a while

I did design new buttons and stuff, and I did send them to thechronic, but if he wants to do a complete makeover, I won't stop him

The best thing is a review reminder!
Headline is cool also. This one i like most of those three variants Suraya presented.
Good work man!

Yeah it's something I wanted to have for myself too to chose which track to review. it shows the oldest track with the least amount of reviews, and it also checks tracks with lots of downloads but very few reviews - so the one that is shown there is one that really needs a review

You don't have to, I don't mind the new ones (although they would look better in that orage box I pitched you
) but I don't really care, I'm glad the old logo is a gonner, since I was soooooo tired of it

Now this starts to show some problems. Having a track just uploaded 5 minutes before on the frontpage isn't the best way imo. Maybe you should limit it to the oldes track with the least reviews... older than a week or something?

There's a limit on it, a track needs to be downloaded 25 times before it shows up there, and it's oldest first.
So that probably means it was downloaded 25 times in 5 minutes
I'll put a date limit on it too.

OK I put in a date threshold for 4 days.
Should I put in a threshold for really old tracks too? Now it shows
quote: |
Canoma - Wizards dancing
This track has been uploaded 406 days ago and only has 2 reviews even though 359 people have already downloaded it... |
Maybe it doesn't make much sense to review tracks that are so old, the producer will probably have improved a lot in the meanwhile
I'll also put in an upper threshold at 3 months.
