    hey guys, could you check out my website at http://hypedmusic.com and tell me what you think. features, new things to add, design, etc. would be cool. it'd be awesome if you would add songs tot he playlist and check out the lyrics and video mode and tell me what you think. you have to run a html5 compliant browser for the site to work. thanks!

    Not sure how you coded it but all the songs played at once when I got to the site, which was not good. Also the PageLoad time was pretty long. I'd recommend looking at pandora or turntable.fm.

    I'd also recommend simplifying the playlist feature. Maybe show only one song and not the entire playlist, you might even be able to generate some affiliate revenue by linking to the song that is currently being played.

    I'd also recommend having the footer always be at the bottom rather than having the rest of the page "scroll into the footer."

    what type of broswer are you using? thats weird, i did set autoplay=1 for the normal youtube embeds, but those should only be activated when you click "play song/music video". also, i don't understand your last comment about having the page scroll to the footer- the style css sets the footer "fixed" to the bottom of the page- not sure why it is scrolling? browser would be helpful. thanks for your comments though!

    I'm using Safari, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

    And in regards to the footer. The scrollbar ends before the footer. So the page "scrolls into" the footer. The footer should only be at the end of the page when I scroll all the way down. Does that make sense?

    hmm i just installed safari for windows, and the footer seems to work fine - so perhaps i misunderstand what you are trying to say. I think you think (haha) that the footer should only show up at the complete bottom of the page, not show up the whole time? hmm, the reason why i make it show up the whole time is because i want the user to be access the player at all times when surfing the website, because it is sort of the centerpiece of my website. thanks for your advice though, and @ the other people- thanks for the (vague?) comments, but i'd prefer if you had specific things i could do to fix my website.

    I think that for the music website need more action, for example flash banners or something. Now is only "wallpaper" and nothing new, need something new what will touch visitor`s eyes :)

    yea, i totally agree with you. Website need moving elements. Also you should consider new design, this one is kinda disruptive for eyes.

    thanks for comments, and for some of the users above me: what do you mean by "moving elements"?

    Design needs a lot of work. The background is low resolution, the colors are all over the place, and there's no clear call to action for what users should do once they land on the page.
