3. A few years back I had started a forum about TWC and had shut it down a month or so ago to create this one.

Are you talking about that ProBoards one? I remember that forum. I browsed around it a little and I think I registered on that forum (although I don't think I posted anywhere on there).

I use to have my own Proboards forum about two years ago. Then I gave up on it and deleted it about a year or so back. I don't like Proboards because it is not as customizable as IPB, you can't host a Proboards forum in your own server, and other reasons.

Yes, I'm talking about the Proboards forum. I got away from it for the same reason.

Alright, fixed it again. Not sure what caused the problem this time, but hopefully this will be the last time that clip gives me a problem!!!  8)

Gary, now all of the IntelliStar, as well as the XL videos do not work.

Then the next thing to suspect would be the ethernet cable(s). Of course the only way you can test these though is if you happen to have a spare lying around somewhere.

I used to have a problem like that and it was being caused by the modem overheating. Make sure your modem isvented in some way-either positioned on its side, or if you sit it flat make sure you sit it on something like a desk or table and not the floor.

You can't unless you happen to have access to her BMI account (and you don't unless your in television, or in some other industry that licenses BMI music, sort of like how Network Music works).

Boy, a CD with the earlier and recent music would be great. I'll probably buy the CD if the tracks are good. If lesser known artists are to be featured, then maybe the two mystery jungle songs will be there from November. , provided there are song samples. But I just have one question, are the songs going to be edited to 2 minutes or are they going be their full lengths?

I would imagine that they would HAVE to be full length, otherwise it really wouldn't make sense to release a cd of sample length songs.

Good news! We now have many new avatars! Chazz has been kind enough to allow me to use his avatars here on our forum, so we now have many new avatar choices!  Thanks to Chazz for his kindness!  8)

Loose or lose?

~Just wondering.

I'm no perfectionist. You'll find I make a number of errors. I sure hope you don't plan to point them all out. That's what Stephen (SSS) is here for! 

Just kidding Stephen!

Actually, TWC uses quite a few artists that are classified as mainstream, or artists whose music you can purchase by simply going to amazon.com or your local music retailer. On the other hand, the lesser known artists are usually much harder to find (if they even can be found,  and some can't be found), and are usually "indie" or independent artists as opposed to mainstream. These artists often operate through BMI, in which case its quite difficult to get their music. 

And then there's artists like Michael Ripoll and Randall Chowning, whose music isn't available commercially AND isn't on BMI.

Yeah, thats what I meant when I said (if they even can be found, and some can't be found).

Here are your answers:

1. Its fairly new, and so hasn't had enough time to build its membership just yet.

2. Yes

3. A few years back I had started a forum about TWC and had shut it down a month or so ago to create this one.

4. The primary focus of this board is TWC, but there is also a general weather section for folks who like to talk about the weather.

Hopefully I've answered your questions! If not, or if you have more questions, feel free to ask!

I can't stand politics. I don't vote, so I won't vote for any of the candidates. But if I HAD to choose one, I'd probably vote for O'Bama.
