Scrapped? Effort? Bloody cheek ! $&^$&#
I could download for free much of the software required 
With a small script to add users from the database..
Why do it all again..?!?!?!
your quote seems way too high
I don't want any graphic design I just want back end stuff..
Not to worry .. 
I would scrap your own effort and start again mate.. hehehee
Don't like the dodgy flash bit
You probably have your socks neatly ordered in the draw

Thank You For Considering: www.ExSitementGraphics.com
<http://www.exsitementgraphics.com/> 
 
On first take, it appears to us that this effort will have be scrapped
and started over.
 
We estimate this database PHP driven project to bid out at
approximately: $6,000.00 USD

Hi guys,
You all pitched for my project 'Music Site'
The URL is www.justablip.co.uk <http://www.justablip.co.uk/>  
It is partly done already but we need a few extras plumbed in 
Integration with database. Better admin features etc..
So we can update and admin the site more easily
Heres an overview of what we are after 
We ain't rich so don't take the mick 
We are looking for just backend work so to speak
But if you have an idea we are ready to hear it 
We got some cash to pay but not loads 
Its not a major major job 
But its not child like either
So please send us a rough quote 
The job starts in a few weeks to a month
The socks are good 
If people look at you funny - poke em in the eye.
Weird music is good for the world..
You cant see the 'music' section cos there are no posts into it yet
But it works. if you go in as admin..
 
All the best 
 
Kris Weston
 
Heres the detailed requirements :
If you can decipher em - sorry ive pasted them from our mailing list.
They sort of make sense.
 
 
Step 2) OPERATION GENERALLY KILL USA STYLE
THERE'S THIS PAGE RIGHT - 
AND oops basically I want it moved to the proper site
I want a page to come up on the left with extra links 
For the admin user.
Easily changeable by hand 
Probably with html files
Although a text file that organises the links would be handy 
Some quick way of doing it anyway
I have to give you the password for you to check out that page
Its just a page of links..
 
 
Step 3) OPERATION JUSTABLIP PROPAGANDA
Get the mailing Lists working with the zen server.
2 mailing Lists 
      1) Announcement Mailing List 
      2) Post Back mailing list for a laugh invite only.
(2) as an option to add to the site later should we feel reckless we can
always make another one I suppose
 
 
I'll forget all that operation bollocks from here on in.
 
Immediate things that annoy us about the site right now
 
LOG IN:
You really should be able to press enter after inputting log and pass We
need a different graphic for the arrow n all Creating a new account
option should be next to log in bit (rather than in the left panel) as
me n Miriam discussed..
 
put a link to anything that is of use
to configuring and editing the site.
 
View user info - change that totally to a list of users with flags next
to their name flags activate different things like mailing list, show
mail to other members (that's applicable in the forum I think, dunno ,
where else?) Command menu comes up on the menu when you log in as admin
Maybe on the left ? dunno see wots better.
 
News/Forum
 
Install some pre-made forum software like www.phpbb.com 
which I really like 
But only cos of www.llamasoft.co.uk 
I love the YAK!
Oops only thing is it would have to link in with site log ins It would
be boring to have another log in for that bit.. That may be hard I
dunno.. It has to have a main news screen 
With topics listed and you are able to go in 
Basically the important stuff should be instantly visible
And extra topics that appear on the 'news' page should be integrated
into the forum..
So they can be updated.. etc..
 
Site Logs
Install some bullshit site logs
Maybe the isp already has them - check that
The ones on the current isp control panel 
Are good guides to what it should be like 
Although maybe a bit more coherent
It would be good to avoid ip's on the site logs 
To cancel developers effects on looking at the site all the time. (raw
log files can be analysed using any of a range of third party log
analysis programs.) apparently :-)
 
 
Website back end (oo)including..
Shop Facility Linked to site customer database in turn linked to
announcement mailing list Deal with Mail-Order Fulfilment Company Deal
with Distributor
 
Web Site Subscription through a pre-made e-commerce site.
Subs should be paid via www.worldpay.co.uk <http://www.worldpay.co.uk/>

 
Other Tasks
Set up linux box here 
To serve up the tracks via some secure method.
When you click on an audio track in 'music'
It chooses between two places the music is stored..
One on my machine at home and on my friend ants machine..
Dunno if you can combine the two with err get right or something
 
Thanks for taking the time to read the babble
