Curious out of all the members that use the website, I would like to see who uses what?

Also, if you have any suggestions for the improvement to these sections or can suggest any other additional sections, let me know.

Currently, I am re-working the KJ Directory (it apparently has a few glitches!)

I am also developing a Classified Advertisement section, as well as, a Merchandise section for Karaoke Scene & KaraokeFest gear!

I voted.. on what I HAVE used in the past, not what I would MAYBE use if I needed to. (I still get lost here)

PS @Phill(off topic, but just noticed it).... Why am I all of a sudden seeing advertisements for "Phillipino hotties?" :/ Not that it's not a feature some may want to use, but I've never gotten that here before.

@WiLdFlOwEr Hmmm... That's a very good question? There shouldn't be any of that - are you certain that you didn't install some software lately that has added an advertisement feature?

It might be based on your recent searches via Google? What are you seeking on the search engines? :twisted:

Yes, there is: Photo Gallery

Go to Directories ^ in the top menu - one of the drop-downs is Photo Gallery!

Once you submit an image - it is displayed in your threads & profiles.

I'm wondering if there is a way to incorporate a feature that alerts you, in some manner, when the comments you make on submissions have been replied to? Perhaps with a mechanism for easily finding those 'unread replies'?

Another idea would be to allow users to select how many of their comments (both on their own submissions, and when viewing the comments they have made on other submissions) are visible on the page at a given time? I've usually seen that done with a drop-box.

Smart@ss.....

I was on my work pc I think, so hopefully I didn't blank out and look up anything of that sort here!

Right now, I'm seeing an add for GMC, Finley Dencker sales to be exact.

Are you looking for new car? Have you recently done a search for cars?

Maybe the Internet knows you need a new car! :twisted:

Phil -

I don't know if this is newly enabled, or if I stumbled on it by accident, but I am digging the mobile version of the site. I am using a Nokia Lumia 900 (Windows Phone) and it is formatted very well on my device.

Thanks!

-Chris

I see that you are a member of the KJ usergroup.

Are you currently listed in the KJ Directory? If you are a KJ - you should take advantage of this.

Do you go to or work at any locations that provide karaoke? if so why not list them in the Club Directory!

Hello Phil,

Great website. Thanks for everything you do around here. The place looks great.

I do have a recommendation - it's something that I have pondered doing myself for quite a while, but I don't have the time....

I'd like to have a database available for KJs to go and rate songs by manufacturer. For instance, if I play SC's version of "Baby Got Back" and want to let people know how bad it is, I would simply go to that page, pull up the song and give it a low ranking. While I'm at it, I would be able to see what other version of that song is ranked the highest.

@TroyVnd27 -

Not a bad idea. I'll see what management says, regarding that.

The thing is they don't wish to alienate any of the advertisers (or potential ones.)

But...perhaps if they see the honest opinions they'll strive to offer a better product;) You can find product reviews on AnYtHiNg online; we have a very qualified group of people here to offer reviews on the different karaoke versions. (my 2¢)

@WiLdFlOwEr - I agree! I believe that could be very beneficial for everyone - however, I don't make "all" the decisions around here! :wink:

@chrisavis - that was implemented just recently. I see that we have several members that visit the forums via a mobile device. I am working on something similar for other sections. {Club Directory & Singer's Showcase}

@Phill I tried yesterday... can't listen to songs on my phone:/ That's terribly inconvenient!

As to the other... I know. I was merely babbling. ;)

@WiLdFlOwEr - I know I am seeking another method for mobile devices to hear the submissions. The current method will not work on many.

Cool!

Not a biggie, but I could on my old phone (which was an old school phone) now I can't on my new phone. Kinda strange. We're getting a bit lazy with our droid phones anyhow tho=)

@Phill - btw.. I think you're doing an awesome job with all the new stuff!
