Ohh I see...but somehow there are more obscure albums that don't appear
on Amazon...and I don't think they'll ever appear there.
 Ohh well...thanks for the fix. I'll go and upload more bands, albums and rate/tag some of them later.

^ At PF we don't use user generated/uploaded album art ... instead I link the albums to Amazon, and then we use their cover art as part of the affiliation program. So all you need to do is to add the album and rate it, and eventually I'll link it to Amazon and add the cover art. I've already linked about 7000 albums, and there's currently a backlog of about 1700 albums.

^ the general policy is that once you add an artist or album you can't edit the data ... except for the tracklist, which has a special "finalize" button which you can use to prevent further editing. The reason for not allowing every user to edit artists and albums is obvious ... there would be no way to prevent abuse.
You can report any error in the PF forum, it will be fixed as soon as an admin or editor spots it. Of course you can also volunteer to become an editor ... |

Hey Mike is there a way to edit the content we add to your site? Like track listing for example?

I'm still figuring out how to navigate the site. It looks like a useful place to store a lot of information. I'm also anticipation know alot more 2009 albums than 2008!

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

Welcome Negoba ... I added your chart to the first post. You can tweak the colors on the signature configuration page at PF!

^ thanks! I introduced a special url which renders a signature image that retains the colors of the individual signatures, but sets common parameters otherwise (font size/family, max. width/lines etc).

I'm bumping this - mostly to grab attention, but also to let you know that I now added the top lists of all the users to the first post of the thread (as signature images). Have a look ... it's a colorful experience!

FYI: I fixed a bug which prevented new ratings to appear on your profile pages ... sorry about that one, it took me far too long to notice it. You can now click the link in the header text of the chart page - it will take you to your own charts page, where you can see all your ratings in the proper order.
I also installed a major upgrade today: You can now swiftly assign main genre and prog status right from the lists - no need to open the editor popup anymore. Edited by Mr ProgFreak - January 11 2009 at 15:48 |

I can only say that you *really* need to pay attention to the lyrics ... and little details, like what's playing in the background at the beginning of Web of Lies.

I've only been able to get through it about 3 times so I'll keep an open mind. But no promises! |

^ I didn't think so at all ... I think that 01011001 is a really, really good continuation of those two albums. There are many references to especially Electric Castle, not only as far as the storyline is concerned, but also musically. And as always, the vocal performances are absolutely amazing.
Did I mention that I am a huge fan? |

Thanks, my list looks better now. Certainly did not want Ayreon in the Top 5. A definite step down from Electric Castle and THE. |

You're very welcome ... and if you also enter your favorites of 2009 as you listen to them, you might even be listed on ProgRadar.  |
