Site updates and news about the official site..

#

Started by Teethgrinder (René Fennema) Administrator in Site Announcements

Hi everyone, finally an update from me. Two things:

1. I made several updates to the site. Check out the front page for details. One of the things I did was adding a large image of the new Gimme Back My Brain cover art to the news page. Check it out!

2. I will be working with Therapy? and their manager to build a new official website! Cool, huh? I’ve been talking with Michael and the band’s manager about it and I’m currently making a functional design and wish-list for the new site.

This is where you come in! Since the site is there for us, the fans, I would love to hear your ideas/suggestions for the new official site. What should be added/changed and which parts of the site do you never use. All ideas, big or small, are welcome. Post them here, so we can have a discussion about it.

Cheers, Rene.

That’s really cool. You might want to take the video comments off my site (http://www.mondopaddy.com). I don’t know about live photos taken by fans, maybe you should put them on here? I plan to use my site for an extensive discography.

Congrats Rene! That’s very cool!

i think you should design the official site to have stuff the unofficial ones don’t have…

how about:
all their videos (i’m sure most people haven’t seen them all)…
or short commentary about each of their songs…
or have the official site drawn entirely in cartoons by martin…
or a tour diary where the band can update after each show how it went…
or i like the idea of live photos from fans…
or i like the eCard idea Pretender said…
or what about an interactive therapy? game like pac-man or something stupid like that, but with the gemil (or with the band themselves)…

ok, i can’t think of anymore. i’m sure whatever you do Rene it will be great!

(note: these ideas were just brainstormed in the past 2 minutes, so even i know some are not the greatest, but hey, that’s the whole point of brainstorming, right?)

Go with Pretenders idea, make this site the official one, it’s the coolest out of the lot.

Nice one Rene.

As a web designer myself there is nothing like doing a proffessional job on your own sites to get yourself noticed.

Just to say seeing that you’re going to be running the two sites is this one going to lose any features or functions to the official site?

Oh and make sure you get some more rare (and live) mp3s on to the official site (with the Band’s permission). Those and the Wall of Mouths are the best areas of this site.

The best parts of any website are the ones that are being updated regularly.

Congrats Rene, you really deserve it! See it as a reward for all the work you put into this site, which is way better than the official site I must say, but I guess the lads discovered that one out for themselves. Anyway, make sure to include a board like this, it’s the nicest one I ran across, with so many nice people and stuff. Anyway, keep up the good work mate!!

Off all things, music is the most important so I’d like to see more mp3’s of rare tracks such as the demos, cover songs the band did, live tracks etc.

I appreciate all your comments and congrats!

To answer your questions:

- This site will not become the official site, and it will not be shut down. It will exist next to the official one. There will be some things on both, but there are things which will only be on my own site, ans some things which will only be on the official site.

- The Wall of Mouths will be on both sites, same back-end (database/scripts), different interface.

- I like your ideas like the e-cards, official pictures, pictures from fans and a tour diary and I will definitely consider them for the the official site! Also, thanks to whaley for the offer for the info about the video clips.

If you have any more ideas, keep ‘em coming! Cheers, Rene.

Hi Rene! Congratulations!!! But please don’t use Flash to create the new site…
Perhaps you could also add more old mp3-files…Or put some videos here… Nevertheless: This is an amazing site!

Congratiolation Rene, you deserved it.
Something I’m realy missing on the T? page are links. Anyone who typed in ‘therapy’ at Lycos knows what I mean when I say it’s hard to find news about T?. And how about a quiz with some rare T? stuff to win?
So long and good luck with the page.

Congratulations,
You’ve obviously put alot of work into this site, and more importantly kept it updated.

Things i’d like to see:
Rare and Old tracks, if thats possible without violation of copyright?

More merchandise if possible?

Accurate Guitar Tabs for just afew songs. (People tell me they can’t find them, I apoligise if they do)

A Band (auto)Biogrhapy

Theres not much more you can ask for, Therapy? are very dedicated to their fans but we have to respect that they have their own lives to live.

The most requested feature is old/rare mp3’s so that will definitely be looked into. Don’t forget to check out my Sound Clips page in the meantime ;-)

News and links are also high up on the list of stuff to do. Thanks for the feedback!
