Re: new cpdl logo design?
Here's a new one incorporating Chuck's ideas. I can make the staff lines smoother but to do so I have to use a Photoshop "blur" brush after merging the lines with the flat earth image to blend the pixels into the earth image (like an anti-aliasing effect). The lines are lightened, 70% fill...

Re: greetings, and a question
Hi Vaarky, the forums could certainly be a place for a new blog-like forum featuring fresh content. As for what that content should be, I was wondering if we can use data to gauge interest. Are there site stats available showing which pages/forums are most visited, length of time spent, etc? Maybe i...

Re: new cpdl logo design?
Hi, I just saw Chuck's note and will send an update soon incorporating these ideas. For fun though, here's another quick version with the globe spinning in the correct direction and notes and lyrics added. I can make the lyrics stronger. What do you think? I tend to agree with Chuck that notes and l...

new cpdl logo design?
This post is related to a recent post in the new members forum. In that post I offered to volunteer at CPDL and several members responded with ideas for what needs to be done, including improving the Main page's visual appearance. Discussions about site changes belong here, not there (new members fo...

Re: greetings, and a question
Hi Max, Yes, I do need to connect via FTP using Dreamweaver. This is the info I need to set up a testing server: Server model: (PHP MySQL, ASP JavaScript, ASP VBScript, ASP.NET C#, ASP.NET VB, ColdFusion, JSP or None) FTP Host: FTP Host directory: (folder on the server mapped to site’s domain name) ...

Re: greetings, and a question
I'm not sure. I'm not familiar with Dreamweaver at all. Dreamweaver is Adobe's web site builder application (acquired via the Macromedia merger). It can load a site from a remote URL and copy all of its elements to a local PC or allow access to the elements on the site itself. The site is probably ...

Re: greetings, and a question
Hi Max, These all sound like great ideas for improving the site but I am probably not the best candidate. My graphics work at Adobe was very much "under the hood." Think of isolating a matrix transformation error in the Bézier rendering code while processing the bottom curve of a Times Rom...

Re: greetings, and a question
Thanks Chuck. I guess I'll jump in and start browsing through new submissions, as I have time, to complete the admin tasks you listed. As for the Mozart, our choir has a printed score. I was hoping to download a Sibelius file because I have Sibelius and can turn down the other parts to practice with...

greetings, and a question
Hello, I'm not brand new to the site but I'm still pretty new. I would like to offer to volunteer to help with the site. What is needed? I'm happy to do anything. I am a former Adobe software engineer (graphics group) so I'm technical but not familiar with wiki sites. I'm sure I can figure it out. M...

avoiding music plagiarism?
Chuck Giffen suggested I post a topic here so here goes. How do you avoid music plagiarism in composing a new piece? I've found these sites helpful for checking melodies/tunes: http://www.musipedia.org/ http://www.themefinder.org/ http://bestclassicaltunes.com/DictionaryPiano.aspx http://www.multime...
