The Music Player On Your Profile Page

You are now able to upload your music to a music player on your profile page (some will remember having this facility before Ning made it cost an added $300 annually). It would be great to hear and promote your music on the site.

You will find the 'MY MUSIC' box, and the 'ADD MUSIC' facility below it, in the left hand column of your personal page.

What you can do with it:

• Add CD artwork
• Send an announcement to your Facebook page when you have uploaded a new track
• Use the Pop-out Player facility, (the icon/option is on your player), the pop-up player itself has a URL ( a website address) which you can use to post to Facebook or send by email to fans and friends.
• Embed the player in your band's website (tap on the small triangle above the playlist on the right hand side and press 'SHARE' to copy the code)
• Set your music to autoplay, and/or shuffle its order, when people open your page
• Choose to link the player to a podcast (by URL) instead of a playlist, if you wish.

Maybe some of you aren't aware that you can also edit and move the modules around on your profile page (once you are signed in), including your music player, and you can trim down your comments feed if it is getting a little long.

Anyway, have fun with the player, and I look forward to hearing and promoting your music.

All the best, Toby
