Nope. I've been really busy. Just finished my last drumline competition.

I just had a couple random ideas.
First (i think this one was mentioned some time ago in a different thread), you could try holding some projects that require people from the forums to come together and create interesting pieces of work that go beyond just musical skills. So,for example, hold a music video project where the music has to be arranged by someone, and then someone else can create a video for it based on Square Enix games. Or you can do a similar thing with a visual story, so basically just picture drawn in a sequential order to an interesting track (battle music- a series of battle drawings), etc. So just projects that require multi-talents that would allow for people to group up or pair up and work on them. (These could be competitions or just projects for people to work on; either one would make sense)

Second idea is related to the first and all arrangements. Maybe if you created a shared SMC Youtube account, and then got the forums to vote on specific arrangements, projects, or any other creative works, and posted those on youtube as featured works. Basically, advertise the site using the best of what we have, on top of the individuals who are already creating links to the site. If you do it like Nicol said in another thread, and start with some of the more popular works, then perhaps you might get more hits and more members over time.

These are great ideas Bahamut. I'm about to create a thread related on this topic as well.

I love the youtube idea.

I'll make a YouTube account that us members can share. I'll send a message with the password and username to everyone that wants to join.

**CarloCrizaldo** · 04-05-2009, 03:40 PM

YouTube account created.

Bahamut · 04-05-2009, 07:26 PM

Well i have some news. My friend made a logo for us, and he sent it to me. Give me your feedback and opinions, and i'll pass them on to him. If we like it, but we need to tweak it a little, he said he can do that. Anyway, here's what he came up with.

These are the two different slight variations. Once again, let me know what you guys think.

**CarloCrizaldo** · 04-06-2009, 03:32 PM

The first one to me seems to fit the forums better; it has the colors of the forum skin. The second one, however, is red, which makes us look evil and gross. Lol, kidding, but you get the point.

I do have one request. Reduce the size a little, so the members of SMC can put it as their avatar, although I'm guessing some would subject to that.

As for you, Joseph Perkins, could your reduce the size of your SMC logo? I'm thinking about having all the members put it in their signatures.

Ahh yeah, that would be really cool.
