I'm not speaking as a mod, just a guy. I would be a bit uncomfortable with this. One of the draws of Chordie is the open, inviting, fun atmosphere. I would be concerned that introducing competitiveness would make the vibe weird. And as a self conscious songwriter I would not want to know that my tune finished dead last. wink

I agree BGD, Maybe you could have a Flavor of the month ( like Baskin Robins Ice Cream).

How small does a picture have to be so it will upload? I've reduced one down to 18kb and I'm still being told it's too big.

ujb Looks like they are all small. I heard of a website that will downsize pictures for free. Insta size.com that may be one word or all small letters,I never went there but I wrote it down. Seems to me you can look at your personel profile and it tells you how large the photo may be.

Kinda like buying sour cream with an expiration date,but I see what the mean.

OOOOoooooouch I do hope we will get to see some pictures and maybe some video. Fearless leader is still coming right (Roger Guppy)? Well at least we have pre season football coming up.

Although I like the "Fearless Leader" title, that belongs to Per and not I, I am merely the longest serving (still active) minion big_smile

But yes, I am still coming, the plane ticket was paid for months ago and I am now beginning to get quite excited.

Roger

Then you must be the wizard!!

Thanks Amy.

Brian another great one, you can also do this as a blues tune if you slow it up and use some b7,a7e7.

Dino. No I havent. I put it aside for now. I plugged it in. One pickup is weak.  5 of the tuners are seized.  It will need a bridge.  (maybe). The spring is missing on the whammy. The fretboard is solid rosewood. Not veneer. Some of the binding is missing on the neck. That is how I can tell. The ideas are running through my head though. Grover or Ping tuners. Lawrence or Seymour Duncan pickups. New tailpiece. Of course a set of strings. Hoping to end up with a real sleeper when it is done.

jjj I think you will be happy after you fix it up. You are a crazy hoarder and thats good you will not have to take any meds for G.A.S..

3 guitars in 3 weeks. This time it is a Japanese hollow body electric from the 60s. It may be a Teisco. It may not. Picked it up for $50.00. It needs a lot of work. Picked it at an antique store in Putnam, Conn. What some people see as junk, I see a diamond in the rough.
