New album previews

We'd had a few complaints about the way album track previews were done on the site originally so we've done something about it. No longer do we have a play button per track, but instead a rather lovely player. This has two immediate benefits; no more tracks playing simultaneously (apologies to our budding remixers), and just a single object to load on the page to speed up the page loading.

Hope everyone thinks it's an improvement - we certainly think it is.

Oh, and finally, credit due to Fabricio Zuardi for his rather wonderful Flash MP3 player. (http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/)

Indmill website launch

After a couple of years' thinking, planning, meeting and programming, indmill.com finally went live on Friday 1st August 2008.

We're now entering the stage of seeing how the website works and, if it doesn't, fixing it so that it does.

For people coming to the site to check it out and maybe buy some music, thanks and please let us know anything that might be improved to make the process simpler for purchasing, browsing and recommending music.

For artists signing up and releasing music on the site, please give all your friends a link to your indmill band page so that you can start selling your music as soon as possible and let us know of any features you might want to see implemented.

We've had a few comments regarding the payment system on the site and are currently looking into simplifying it. We are also looking at offering PayPal as an option in the very near future for those of you who are concerned about giving your card details online.
