Hi folks! This has been a very busy year for me, so I've taken the free time I had during the holidays to unwind by working on some little projects that I've been meaning to get to for a while. Among them has been a tribute/arrangement piece for a game series called Golden Sun that I continue to be a big fan of. A fresh sequel on the DS was recently released, so I figured it's the perfect opportunity to take a stab at briefly interpreting my favourite themes from the game (Main Theme and Venus Lighthouse for those who care). I should be clear and say that it's really a very faithful interpretation; I didn't take too many liberties with the original material. It was also the perfect opportunity to test out some of my Christmas gifts to myself, including CineOrch and some VSL downloads. I'm very pleased with how it turned out, and my inner fanboy is giddy at hearing the old chiptunes played by an orchestra (even a virtual one) so hopefully you'll find something to like here too. Have a link: Golden Sun Rising Enjoy! :happy:

I am in the hunt for a programmer enthusiast who is a member of this site. I can't offer pay (at this time), but the best I can do is offer unlimited upload space, free web hosting for your personal site or sites (our server is quite fast), and a great path to grow with Young Composers. This means that if Young Composers starts to make profits, (and I don't want to look ahead too much into the future so I will be conservative here) the programmer enthusiast would be my first choice in hiring for a part time job, or contract work. If anyone feels they are qualified for this position, do not hesitate to contact me or reply to this thread with your qualifications.

Analyze customized code to make more efficient (if applicable) Perform various hacks to Young Composers to better integrate a network profile. Help format some parts of the site that look weak, such as directory and browse results. Understand how user profiles are bridged between Elgg and IPB. I may need help improving this process in time Ambitious duties may include: Develop custom IPB modifications Develop custom Network modifications Rewrite or rework on pre-existing IPB modifications (i.e, creating a teacher application, creating a reverse auctioneer system) The basic qualities you ought to possess include: PHP and MySQL experience (or a good programming mind) Experience or willingness to learn the Invision Power Board architecture Experience or willingness to learn the Elgg architecture (the architecture our network is powered by) Knowledge or willingness to learn Paypal API Time and motivation to help Young Composers in the technical aspect Willingness to respond to email (are you reliable?) Ability to attend some or most of our weekly staff meetings
