Forum Theme Song
 
This may seem like a knockoff of zombo.com, but would there be any way to encrypt a song (I am not internet savvy) onto the homepage of the site? I'm not joking at all, I think zelaron needs a theme song. Perhaps it may attract more members? Possibly cause guests to join?

Demosthenes 2007-07-22 09:36 PM

That may drive people away too, though.

HandOfHeaven 2007-07-22 09:38 PM

I suppose. As long as it is not Ween's Roses are Free, we should be fine.

Lenny 2007-07-23 07:17 AM

If it were the home page that shows the forums, and that we all have to visit to get to another forum, it would get quite annoying, unless there was some way to disable it in User Options or on the page.

If, however, a portal page was brought back, and the tune was on that, then it would be better than having it on the main forum page.

And if the tune were one of these ludicrously catchy ones, well, it'd drive people insane AND make them remember Zelaron. Two birds with one stone, baby! :D

HandOfHeaven 2007-07-23 08:29 AM

I was thinking Big Things Poppin' by T.I.


Now for the serious suggestion. Beck - E-Pro

Vault Dweller 2007-07-23 10:38 AM

I support anything Beck.

Thanatos 2007-07-23 11:21 AM

I support your right to support Beck, but I do not support Beck.

RoboticSilence 2007-07-23 02:14 PM

All parts of the Futurescape.

KagomJack 2007-07-23 02:17 PM

Better yet, how about a radio station.

D3V 2007-07-23 02:41 PM

I think chruser had mentioned something about bringing back a Zelaron Radio station, i'd be down for that, maybe even have some of the members host some music, etc, become the DJ for an hour or something, or just upload their playlist.

But for a theme song, I was thinking something along the lines of Metallica, maybe Enter Sandman or something.. :)

KagomJack 2007-07-23 02:43 PM

That'd be pretty good. I got some good Bhangra songs for those who have a taste for the punjabi music scene.

D3V 2007-07-23 02:49 PM

At my house I have an unlimited amount of songs of pretty much every variety. There's tons of country/rock/rap/hip hop/reggae/oldie(classics) it's amazing I was looking the other day and hadn't realized it, lmao...

But yeah, having Radio Zelaron would be sweet.. It'd give me something to listen to at Work..

KagomJack 2007-07-23 04:00 PM

Maybe the funniest member here could have a short show each week too.

D3V 2007-07-23 04:10 PM

Haha, I don't think i'd actually want to hear what most of these mo'fo's actually sound like, my treble doesn't go up that high to meet with the squeakyness .. rofl.

Vollstrecker 2007-07-23 04:39 PM

A theme song on the homepage would be quite irritating, I would highly recommend an option to mute it (and have it stored in a cookie or something) to keep it muted.

D3V 2007-07-23 05:24 PM

I don't like the idea entirely either, but I do however, like the idea of Zelaron Radio.

Vollstrecker 2007-07-23 05:25 PM

What would be on this 'Zelaron Radio'?

KagomJack 2007-07-23 05:38 PM

All music.

Vollstrecker 2007-07-23 05:50 PM

I mean, would it be user-submitted music, or what?

D3V 2007-07-23 05:51 PM

It could be setup through a program type of podcast, or Winamp playpists, WMV playpist, doesn't matter. It would be through streaming, and I suppose whoever sets it up could control it, be that Chruser WW whoever, and if they wanted to have more fun with it and have less responsibility, they could appoint members to take over DJ duties of puting up their own playlists and music styles, and eventually i'm sure they could make timeslots for each person etc etc so people could tune in when they wanted to hear a specific type of music...

Thanatos 2007-07-24 09:23 AM

I wholeheartedly agree with your assesment of the situation. User-submitted music for a Zelaron Radio would make my penis go hard. Do it.

Lenny 2007-07-24 11:26 AM

I'm quite liking the idea of a podcast. Maybe each week a different member can do a podcast about themselves, or something, with a few of their favourite tunes thrown in.

EDIT: Maybe each week, too, members submit questions or topics for the member doing the podcast to answer or discuss. Or the member doing the podcast could talk about a certain topic, or even do something on a few news items from the previous week.

Yeah definately. Podcasting is the way to go these days, they're quite entertaining no matter what they are, and if these forums had them I'm positive activity and new members would spike, and ultimately that's what everyone wants, or atleast hopefully it would, if the word got out just a bit.

Vollstrecker 2007-07-24 04:42 PM

I'm not 100% sure what a podcast is, anyone got a rough explanation?

Grav 2007-07-25 08:35 AM

I would enjoy DJing a radio station. Any Hip Hop fans out there would probably appreciate my selection.

RoboticSilence 2007-07-25 11:47 AM

Well if a radio station is coming about I do have almost 70GB of music of wildly varying styles and would be happy to contribute.

slaynish 2007-07-25 12:42 PM

nothin more nothin less.

Jesus Christ. I thought I was bad.

Vollstrecker 2007-07-25 04:12 PM

My selection is much smaller (and likely to be appreciated by a smaller crowd anyway). ;)

KagomJack 2007-07-25 10:29 PM

Christ, I only have 5 gb of music. o.o

RoboticSilence 2007-07-25 10:36 PM

You guys have a problem with variety? :cry:

KagomJack 2007-07-25 10:39 PM

No, I just don't fucking listen to -that- much music.

RoboticSilence 2007-07-25 10:42 PM

But what would be wrong with being exposed to it???

Demosthenes 2007-07-25 11:49 PM

Nothing wrong with it, but that's the most I've ever heard of. In fact, until now I was the most I've ever heard of. You trump me by about 350%.

D3V 2007-07-26 08:28 AM

I'd rather have it be more like listening to the radio, but with user-specific songs. We all want to listen to something we can enjoy, not just one artist that a specific member nuts over.

Jeezy is getting old nowadays.

Anyway, is this at all possible Chruser/WW? Seems like we have a lot of interest in it..

Not really sure what you mean by user specific songs and how 70GB including probably 30 different genres/subgenres is "one artist" or how what yo usaid has anything to do with what MJ said but please make some suggestions. 70gb is a lot but I am always looking to expand!

Grav 2007-07-26 11:45 AM

Time to be a music elitist and say 70 GB isn't much music. I keep my selection extremely trimmed and I have about 35 GB of music. If I didn't regularly get rid of stuff I didn't like I would probably be in at around 500 GB. I have friends with tens of thousands of CDs and vinyl albums.

D3V 2007-07-26 11:56 AM

Wow you guys are crazy, I have like 5-6Gigs and I figured that was somewhat of a lot.
