Earlier this week, the Admin team and M@X agreed to open a page for our beloved site on http://www.myspace.com - MySpace . Reason for this is that it provides an additional means to attract attention from prog lovers who surf MySpace to discover new progressive rock acts, and to have a means to connect directly (as MySpace friends) to old and new bands lurking on MySpace. In short: it's all about promoting the site. In principle, all are welcome to befriending ProgArchives.com on MySpace, especially if they put up a banner and link to MySpace on their own pages. Friend requests will be monitored by the admin team. Our MySpace URL is as obvious as can be: http://www.myspace.com/progarchives - http://www.myspace.com/progarchives For questions or remarks related to this, you can contact me, or any other member of the admin team. http://www.myspace.com/progarchives">  ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

Hoorah!! Didn't now Prog Archives is Gemini.  I'll join, got my myspace account and even had a banner of ProgArchives since creating the account. The only thing,I'll be a mere peapsqueak to the bunch of artists who'll join, somewhere down the bottom of the entire friends list.  -------------

You may want to throw in a link to my (extremely unsuccessful) PA group. http://groups.myspace.com/progrockrullz And add STC to your top friends.  |

 Well - assuming you know how to edit your MySpace in the profile editor (you set it up didn't you):1. Open your profile editor, and go to the bottom of your "About me" editor 2. Open the MySpace page of http://myspace.com/progarchives - ProgArchives in another tab or window 3. Copy the text in the white box below the banner there (at the bottom of PA's About me) 4. Paste the text at the end of your About Me in the profile editor 5. Click "Save all change" and you should be ready to roll.... ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

far be it for me to give you any extra work Mr Angelo, but you've got a few American 'MySpace' friends to make now, too....  ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

If you're still having problems with putting the banner in, Rach, then try putting the following code in the "About Me" section, as Angelo mentioned on the page before: <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3Lm15c3BhY2UuY29tL3Byb2dhcmNoaXZlcw=="><br><img src="http://a109.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/109/l_128526933fa6c549ade919ce585a3b24.gif" border="0"></a> -------------

Oh I managed it ok James, I was just being thick last night (I've got another blinkin cold and my eyes are rebelling against seeing!) and didn't see the code for it! But it's nicely pasted in now in all it's purple glory!
Thanks guys!

Take a look through my friends list, there's many prog bands amongst them, including Peter Hammill, apparently.

I'll send a request eventually.
I've also got the banner on my page. Unfortunately, it has taken a backseat to Rhino Energy Drink in importance ------------- Beauty will save the world.

Ok everyone, I am quite excited.....
now, I'm quite a technophobe, as most of you will know....
....but Dean has helped me get a Myspace page set up, to help promote worldwide progressive gigs and festivals, which may be found at: http://www.myspace.com/fandangoinprogression - www.myspace.com/fandangoinprogression
this has principally been advertised along with PA's Myspace, on both Festival Rolling calendar's for event organisers, but I would be most grateful if as many of you as possible would also become my friends (I'm not particular!!
 )much appreciated....
