Hello everyone!

This is it!!! The updated look of BLASTOLOGY & HALF MAN HALF MACHINE for 2008!!!
I've made it so that each site looks similar in design!!! Now, on to the features!!!

1. The Gallery. It's also been updated to the latest version and pretty much all it's updates are internal. I don't know how many of you know this, but you can upload videos in there if you have enough space on your account. Once your account is full. It's full. We can re-new it, but you'll lose everything you have uploaded to it. I will look into it more as it is new here and new to me also!

2. THE MEDIA CENTER Button!! In here is where you will find Many high quality videos of some of the showcased Drummers {IN ACTION!!} here inside Half Man Half Machine & Blastology.
AND YES IT'S NOW AVAILABLE TO ALL MEMBERS!

3. No more chat room... Now we have a chatbox for ALL Members!

4.A Blogging system for all!


UPDATED INFO for profile system ADDED Sunday Nov.25th
5. A newer profile system is in ((BETA)) format. Monday November 26th, 2007 we should have the FULL Profile system up and running. So, please wait to customize your profile then. It will be FULLY customizable with your own backgrounds and more!

6. A 'new' Huge Arcade system has been added too. Currently there is over 150 games. We'll keep adding games until we have over 500! And Blastard will add more in 2008... until we reach 1,000+

7. Click on the 'menu' button in the navigation bar to SEE new posts and more.

Also, if you first come into Blastology and 'see' -TheMachines- area looks closed? Just click on the words -The Machines- and it will open up! You can see each Drummer and their forum. Also.... click on the drummers picture and go straight to his/her Half Man Half Machine site!

If you click on a thread, then it's topic and want to get back...there are little folder icons that will direct you back to where you want to go.


All registered Members now, DO NOT have signatures. If you WIN a monthly contest or if you have donated. Your signature will be turned 'on'.
Some of you may say this is bullshit. Oh well, if you knew how much Half Man & Blastology plus monthly maintenance with bandwidth costs.... you would n't be saying it. TRUST ME! If it has not been turned on... P.M. me and I'll get to it!

On the main page once you log-in, your Avatar and user control panel will be on top! You can check for Private messages and new posts there too! And there's a site navigation to the left of that module, in which I put a link to our monthly contests there! More links will be added.



Now....when posting....You'll see the different types of Fonts you can use, the sizes, the colors. Also the smilies and a attachment button. Then there's a insert link and remove link button. Insert E-Mail/ insert image/ tag wraps and....... see the last button? It looks like a square with the Blastology 'B' in it? That's the insert -youtube videos- button. Also the $ sign is connected to the Blast PointZ system. You can use it to charge Members to see content in your posts! This will be customized more at a later date.

There's also an 'infractions' button on ALL Members posts. I'll say this once and this one time only...so I hope everyone reads this---->>>

Abuse of the youtube button (Throwing on porn or shit like that) and you are 1- step from being banned for life!


There's also a 'quick reply' system added, and a 'similar threads' block added to the bottom of threads. Also, for guests we have a limited viewing system set up. What it does is let you view Blastology as a Guest for awhile, then it will shut down your viewing and ask you to join. It's FREE, so what's the reason not too? Plus, at the end of the year we pick a handful of Members and give them gifts... just for being a part of our Community! This year (2007) I'm giving away Axis Pedals, DB drummer shoes, F.M.P. HiHat jinglers, and more.... and a bunch of 'Drum Cam' Blastology custom made DVD's!

I re-built this forum again to the max. Let's enjoy it! Hangout with some of the greatest drummers alive, and possibly.... maybe learn a tip or technique or trick or two... and meet new friends from around the World ...
We WANT to network with as many Communities of the same interests as we have! And we plan to keep our Community the one ALL others are compared too!

Thank you everyone for being here!

Kenny

REGISTER!!! It's FREE!

This newer site is still in 'beta' mode, so please bear with us as we'll get all running back to normal A.S.A.P.
It's 'live' now so that you all can visit with Friends and drummers right away. Otherwise it may of had been down longer...
Thanks
