recently i was sent an MP3 to place into the forest radio.
very cool. i like seeing this.
but as i am swamped with work.
i need to ask that everyone submitting mp3s for the site do a minimum of work also.

instructions in the next post. open and edit them in WORD or BBEdit or DREAMWEAVER are better because they will auto-colour the text making it easier to read.
but it's very simple stuff. just find and replace a word and copy and paste a line. and you are done.

download this:
http://www.theforest.org.uk/music/forestRadioPak.zip
and email it back to: pogo@theforest.org.uk when you are done changing it to fit your MP3.
to submit your MP3 files send them to the same email address by using: http://www.yousendit.com/

it is only 3 files:
1. JPG artwork file: [400px by 400px]
open it and replace the image with your own. keep it the same size. then save it.
2. TRACK LIST:

* notes - make sure to pull open your text editor window. like this:*open with WORD. put your track titles in and save it.
3. ALBUM NOTES:
open with WORD. write something about your track or CD and save it.
4. Rename the folder to your music's Name and make a zip file of the folder and email it to me.



Thats it. any questions... please ask them here, so that others may benefit from your question and answers

the player is skinable. it is an open source FLASH project. meaning that it is free to download all the FLASH.fla files to play around with. so if you know Flash enough, you could rebuild the player to look and act any way that you would like. i give lessons in FLASH too.. if there is anyone interesting in learning.
