New Way To Upload Files

I made it so you can upload right to our fileden server by logging in as a guest. If you go to www.newatrain.com/index/Upload.php you can see it. Just thought I'd tell you that real quick

New Things

Okay a couple of new things I've been working on. The music site is now more organized to where you can see a list of songs by artists, song, or by genre. I added a search engine to each section and by tomorrow there will be a new one to videos and games. As you can see when you search with this new one, there are one or two ads on top. Ignore them and go to the search results. Maybe later I will either find a free one without ads or buy one without ads. TBA. I also put a Yahoo! search engine on the home page to make it convenient for people who switched there homepage from a search engine site to atrain.com. That's all for now.

More Updates

Okay so I've been working on a few more things today. I got a lot more music up, a couple more videos, and a new feature to the lyrics site. Now when you lookup a lyric, you have a choice of just reading the lyrics or reading the lyrics with the song playing in the background. I also have put up more music, and will soon be changing it from windows media player to quicktime player, so make sure you have quciktime installed. I just think it looks neater that way. I might have it so you have the option to choose between the two. Last thing, two features to lookout for. I am working on a more direct file upload form that would let you send files directly to my server, instead of my email. And I am also working on a more direct commenting system to comment on games, music and videos. Those should be coming very soon.

Couple More Things Acomplished

I got a couple more things acomplished today. I found a good file hoster, so music and videos will be updated constantly. I mixed the Listen To Music and the Download Music into one so now when you click on a song under the music section, you listen to it, and below it is a download link. The games are back up and running after me taking them down for about an hour to update them. Thats it.

Lots of New Updates; Game Bug Fixed

Since I am grounded, I have spent the whole day updating the site, fixing things, and adding the forum back.
Okay so the game bug is finally fixed. The games should center on the page right. I am still working on the IE bug. I am not sure exactly how I am going to do it. But I will figure it out.
The Forum is back, and for the moment, I am hosting it on armbell instead of on our own server like before. I will switch it back soon, but not right now.
I also am still looking for a hoster for the music and videos. Its harder than one would think. T35 wont let us host music and videos on our server so I can't do it that way. Also Taylor and I have been on the phone working on the site like nonstop for the past two days, brainstorming new ideas and working on our stuff.
Oh duh one more thing. WE ARE ON OUR OWN DOMAIN! Can't believe it? Me either. But we are and I just fixed every link so no more sending you back to atrain.t35.com. And we are looking into a better email thing. Thats all
Thanks,

Where To Start...

Well lets see. As I have mentioned I recruited my buddy Taylor in to help with the site. He has been doing a great job in helping with me. This weekend we have gotten alot done. I officially updated every page. We are now adding new stuff at a speedy pace. Mostly games at the moment because i am trying to find a new file hoster. Lyrics will start coming up soon and videos and music after i find a new hoster. I added a search engine to the games section which has proven quite affective. Its temporary for now because i can only add up to 60 pages on it. Which right now we only have about 20 but soon we'll have many more. We are constantly coming up with new ideas on how to improve the look of the site. So within the next like month expect minor changes here and there. One major bug is with the games, they are not on the page very well. I am trying to figure that out, but for now, it will be fine. Another big one I figured out when i used my dads laptop is that when you look at the site on Internet Explorer, it is all uncentered and kind of disorginized. I'm not sure why. Another reason why I encourage use of FireFox. That's all for now. Oh and newatrain.com will be up in the next 2 or 3 days for sure.
