I haven't gotten to making the template yet. It will be on full display August 21.

And that's completely fine, I'll just amend that right now.

JayJamJah Wants any help with the Soul and Funk Introductory thread, I noticed he was just doing soul. And not that I'm the most knowledgable about any genre really if I was going to stab at any genre there It would be funk.

The do it please, the more the merrier and I for sure need help. I think Urban could give some help with Funk too.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

He's quite possibly a better candidate, Have we got a template to work with for these things?

By the weekend Lucifer Sam will get us the template. I'd say do some webbing or brain storming now, of albums, artists and tid-bits of info.

Default Alright, the moment some of you've been waiting for...

This will be the official template for any introductory thread. We need them as clean and orderly as possible to attract visitors. Please note that the thread title should be "The [Genre] Introductory Thread". You can quote my post and fill in where necessary to make it easier. Please understand that if you are covering more than one MAJOR genre (i.e. Rock & Metal), you can make an introductory thread for each, but leave the sub-genres within the thread. Everything within brackets should be deleted or deleted and substituted using the instructions shown.

The deadline for submission is October 1, 2008 (giving you a month and some change to create, edit, and change the thread as desired).

----------------------------------------------------------------

The [Genre] Introductory Thread


[Insert medium-sized (250 to 350 square pixels) image here of the album cover you feel best represents the genre.]

[Brief introduction: this is a small section where you can introduce the genre and explained how it came into being, but you should be concise and succinct. One to two paragraphs should be sufficient to introduce a genre and explain what the music sounds like. We don't want to saturate the introductory threads with words so that newbies don't shy away from using them.]

The Must-Haves: [Here follows a list of eight to ten albums which you feel best represent the genre as a whole.]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Sub-Genre] [An opportunity to provide some notable sub-genres (but please, don't take it further than a sub-genre; we don't want to hear about blackened forest pixie metal). Use common sense! Three to five albums should suffice.]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]

[Sub-Genre 2]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]

[Sub-Genre 3...]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
[Artist] - [Album]
Compilations: [Here you can exercise even more control by creating a playlist of eight to ten songs. You can archive them using WinZip and upload them using Megaupload, Mediafire or similar sites. If you want to, you can make multiple compilations or compilations for each sub-genre (though that would be a lot of work).]
