Question for the forum?

How many of you would like blogging and/or a limited photo album available to the general population of HRC?

HRC Pro members already have it, but I would like to add these features to everybody, cuz I love nothing more than reading others blogs and stuff...

- Would users use this?
- Would current HRC Pro members feel robbed?

The MAIN jist of HRC Pro is music hosting, other stuff is just for fun, I'd like to spread the fun.

What say ye, HRC's good and faithful membership?

I'm all for it, and I wouldn't feel robbed at all. If anyone from the general public wants to subject themselves to reading my drivel, then I guess that's their mental defect :D

sounds good to me, it's good down time to peruse other's ramblings.

I always figured it was HRCPRO only due to HD and BW restrictions, but hey, if it'll work out, and the boss don't object =), then more power to 'em.

Well, that was the issue, I am working some things out to hopefully move and more and more features to the general public...oh, and customable avatars to everyone too.

The music tho, that'll be a pay service for the foreseeable future...as will the "no ads" option.

I just want to bring HRC to the next level of service for users...it's wanting to badly...a couple new free features may help :-)

I figure a photo album and journal may just be the ticket.

OK, everybody should be allowed to customize their avatar and able to upload one picture into their profile...for now. Not a gallery, but a single pic into their bio section of their profile.

Late as usual, but I vote yes as well. Even though it is done for the moment.

And dB, I found an excelant new beer. Not the heavy black stuff I usually consume. It is a much paler ale, and very tasty as well. WE will have to hook up for a tasting of said brew in the near future.

Oh, I ain't even close to done...the avatar and profile pic is done...blogs and photo albums will move to the public eventually, but not tonight (probably)...but that isn't even close to what I mean when I am talking about taking HRC to the next level...I got plans I haven't talked to ANYBODY about.

First I have financial arrangements to work out, budgeting, securing services and verifying SA's and such...

Please, some non-pro user try blogging and see how she works...I also moved the guestbook to a page of it's own, the profiles are looking much better!

Ya may have to refresh the browser to load the new style sheet.

I'm late as well on this, but I think it's a great idea. Should get alot more use out of all the cool features available.

Have at it people.

I gotta admit, I am surprised, even a little disappointed that not one single member has used the photo album or the blogger yet outside the HRC Pro members...

Oh well, not every plan works I guess, but I thought people would more readily use these new features...

Live and learn.

Did ya post it out front or anything? I haven't looked at the front page in a week or so.

I think some things here just take more time. But I agree with you, I thought more would jump on it immediately.

The trouble is we like to see gear in the living room but partners think its untidy.I feel like saying,"that amp and cab helps with the bills,how much has the sofa earned this year?"But no, best to say nothing and just keep lugging it about,driving to all the places where the gear is stashed cause they would have to sit with it longer than us.

Dude, you know I've only covered my ears once from listening to music here. And it surely was not your, so rest easy.

Unless of course your getting into some kind of new stuff you haven't told us about????

Besides, I jsut got a demo of some post industrial grindcore stuff, and I didn't cover my ears for that. But needless to say, I did turn the job down. Advised them to hit me up when they have practiced a bit more and refined their sound.
