== Image upload ==
I see that we now have quite a few album image uploads. This is really good but I think we need some standardized way of naming them, so that we don't end up with huge amounts of duplication.


Similarly, I think we need standardized naming for all the different types of files.
== Areas to Work On ==
The following areas have a structure in place and can be expanded now following this:
#[[Main Page]]
#[[FAQ]]
#[[Bibliography]]
#[[Discography]]
##[[Graphical discography]]
##[[Text discography]]
##[[Bootlegs]]
##[[Bootlegs by date]]
#[[Songs]]
#[[Links]]
#[[Concert Schedule]]
#[[Ticket Info]]


Any thoughts?  [[User:JohnE|JohnE]] 14:09, 23 March 2006 (CST)
The following have not been developed at present. Ideas and tests for these sections are welcome:
#[[Gigography]] (past events)
#[[Pictures]]
#[[What's New]]


:: [[User:JohnH|JohnH]] : Last week when I found out the wiki wouldn't accept 2-character names like ab.jpg or by.jpg, and also that the image search function worked better with whole words, I started using a longer name, which would go something like this:
== Image upload ==
:: 1977_My_Aim_Is_True_Album_small
:: 1977_My_Aim_Is_True_Album_mediun
:: 1977_My_Aim_Is_True_Album_large
:: 2002_My_Aim_Is_True_Album_Rhino_small
:: etc...
:: Today when I saw that Paul and I were duplicating each other's album images, I went through and applied a Category label to all of them so we could see what we have.
:: Whatever you guys think is fine by me though...


:: [[User:JohnE|JohnE]] 18:06, 23 March 2006 (CST): I favour the longer names, I must say, so that it is clear what they in fact are. I was wondering about having the year prefix. Is that so that the albums will be naturally sorted in chronological order on the Category page?


::: [[User:JohnH|JohnH]] 19:21, 23 March 2006 (CST) -- Yes, that seemed the more useful sort to me.

== What Templates are Available? ==
How do you find what templates exist on this site? Surely we don't have to maintain a manual list for these. (God it is hard to find info on the Meta site!!) - [[User:JohnE|JohnE]] 14:26, 29 March 2006 (CST)

== What Colour Scheme Should This Site Have? ==
Playing around with the colour scheme for the site. Sorry for any inconvenience. If you have any ideas how it should look, speak up. - [[User:JohnE|JohnE]] 22:48, 30 March 2006 (CST)
