  2. I wrote down the basics to what info we will want on the site... I am just gonna try to write out what I can in the most detailed / organized manner... but I will start working on an actual wordpress theme tomorrow which will be able to give you a visual of the ideas I got so far... but for now, words it is
  3.  
  4. Ok so... Top of the page / Main focus = Black Notes, either title, logo, or banner (my cover photo for example)
  5. Menu (Navigation bar, most likely top, under or above the Banner / logo = 8 Categories so far, which I will explain
  6.  
  7. 1.) Home (even on home page this will always be the first option for the menu bar)
  8. ~In no particular order~
  9. -) News (Black Notes updates, new songs could be posted here, or personal changes, maybe new equipment or w/e, a semi-blog basically)
  10.  
  11. -) About (Biography, written in better detail than anything I have done for FB or w/e else)
  12. -) Music (I looked into this, and I believe we won't have to add any cost for this feature as long as we just embed SoundCloud player into the page, every song will be played throw the SC-Player, which I believe also gives the download option if you choose, correct me if I am wrong, not educated on soundcloud) Every Song should definitely be on here... hopefully in a well organized but appealing manner
  13. -) Video (Every single youtube video, besides songs that are only audio... backstage / behind the scene type stuff and things like don't judge video / acoustic sessions will fit in here)
  14. -) Photos (Pretty obvious, just an overall collection of every band / music pic... should be able to do a much more organized / attractive way of having a photo album than FB if done right)
  15. -) Contact (Email address, basic information to get in touch with Black Notes if they need anything ,or ask questions... will have to think about this one more, but something of this sort)
  16. -) The Fam (This is an idea I had for a section of everyone we can consider "family", I think it would be a cool to have anyone who wants to be on the website to send us a pic that has "Black Notes" written somewhere, we can encourage creative drawing, painting, organizing physical objects or w/e... as long as they are in a picture that says Black Notes somewhere, they will get to be on that page, I think we should start it off with pictures of ourselves and market the idea that anyone can be on our page and part of the fam)

  19. So thats the 8 menu buttons I got in mind... Every theme has different menu style... but overall, thats just the rough idea for what will be on the site, no matter what theme...
  20. The next focus point, (besides the menu / logo / banner) which will most likely be in the middle of the screen ish, varying depending on theme once again... will be thumbnails or links to the social media sites
  21.  
  22. Imagine : 3 columns. 1 box / picture for Twitter, maybe with the most recent tweets and a follow button... 1 box / picture for Facebook, I know some widgets show "friends that like Black Notes" and a link / like button.... and 1 box / picture for YouTube and subscribing....
  23. I am thinking we can make a Home page focus'ed from top down, Banner / logo -> Menu -> Social Media -> Sidebar / Content
  24.  
  25. The sidebar / content will be the biggest chunk of sheer information, I got some ideas for a sidebar and categories
  26.  
  27. Side Bar: Inspiration-
  28. sub categories:
  29. - Meaning / Story behind the music
  30. - Other Artists / Songs
  31. - Music News
  32. - Quotes
  33.  
  34. ---
  35. The social media boxes should take up most the space in the 'content' spot that will change depending on what menu / sidebar link is visited...
  36.  
  37. The idea I had for the quotes section, was that the twitter account be mainly used for inspirational / success quotes... we could just copy our daily IGoogle quote or find different ones, I don't think we will get sued or anything as long as we source who said it I think it'd be cool to have a big collection of wise words and sayings
  38.  
  39. Under the Menu / Sidebar / Content... at the very bottom, some random footer will probably just copyright the site and if we really wanted to (and largely depending on theme choice) we could have the menu repeat, so that they can navigate on the bottom of the page too... but that all depends on how our theme will organize everything
  40.  
  41. I am gonna try to start filling in some of these ideas into an Instant WordPress so we can test out some themes and monkey with things to see if we are gonna want more / different ideas on the site
  42. But I am going to bed for now, sorry I wrote so much, hope it explains my thoughts clear enough... talk to ya tomorrow
