better tribalmixes - great idea.

Guys.

I just got the idea how tribalmixes can grow much!I just looked at the main page and thought - damn thats not enough for such a site.The idea is: We can make a better design for the main page and make like all big sites NEWS AROUND THE WORLD - example djmag.com residentadvisor.net progressivehouse.com etc etc.We can give the permission to some users who will be the writers and they will get news around the world to give them to us.We can take interviews from our featured djs and other aswell.People will read this and tribalmixes will grow!

what do u think?

btw, if this happens i want to take the part with the interviews :whistle:

man, i didnt said they are better coz i visit tm much more than ra or djmag.what i wanted to say is that we can be bigger.that ppl visit our site more and more.and why should we be only a tracker when we can be more.we are big enough but why should we stay on that level like all the trackers.we made a radio now its the next step...dont u think... ?

what you're 'offering' is already available. there's already room on main page to post any news or whatever, there're people - [e]ditors - who can do it for you, if you can't, and no design needs to be redone there..

You guys dont understand me.this main page news is actually only for events.What I wanted to tell was different.Wanted to make it bigger.With more news, the writers write it in their own way, not just copy/paste or paste a pic.We could take interviews from djs etc etc...but like i see u dont like my idea so forget it.

well, all right, go ahead, headz up for this. you're an [e]-ditor now. it's not that i (or we? who we?) don't like this idea, i said - there're already all instruments and tools you need for that, - main page, way to add news (which can be anything, those are 'world of music' news, like a column in a newspaper - write what you want), a personal wish (the main driving unit of motivation).. all i'm saying here is... i made that column for it to be something like you've described, don't remember, maybe in summertime, and as usual - took 9 months for someone to realize that place can be used for something other than party announcements.

i m with u enen but ho can i write a story or article on the main page after they have closed this option :unsure:

see, that's what i'm talking about.. you already have all the tools you need for that. i'm not going to complicate main page with special code, because you already have all the things you need for this.

news are posted in html format, which will allow you to design a with one row and two cells , one cell will carry the small picture, the other cell will be wider and will carry some text - exactly what you're talking about, but requires a little action and extra knowledge from your side.

the text in the second cell can be chosen by you to represent most idea of the article, it can be modified and adjusted by you to be displayed in the most eye-catching manner (leveled out and stuff, like in a news paper).

at the end of this "small portion of the article" you can put a link more... where src will be the link to a full-size version of the article posted in forums, no matter what section of the forums, it's just gonna be a full version. or it could be a link to a special torrent, or to 1 single comment of a torrent, or a forum post, or even an [e]-browser record introducing new talent or show or whatever else...

so basically process would go backwards to what i've described... 1 - post a forum thread (some info) with pics and stuff, 2 - organize it well and put it on the main page as a small portion of the post, 3 - if you cannot do it (do not know or restricted access), ask someone who knows how to explain it to you or simply has rights to the feature.

summarizing all this, i say the phrase i've been saying for very-very-very-long time... please, learn how to use the website, how to get most of it with the tools you've got already arranged and made for you. you do not need to publicly call attention to your idea, you just need to do it, to start doing it, that's so simple...

ps. if you do not know how to use html tables, please do not jeopardize other [e]-ditors ability to add news to the main page. uploaders and vip were taken this right away from them, because they have screwed up the main page alot before, using html in an erroneous manner. please make sure you know what you're doing, or ask others for help. if main page appears to be screwed up again, [e]-ditors will lose the right to add news, and your great innovation can go left behind without a way to implement it.
