Lets write a fake book together

if people have tunes IN finale format you should upload them too. it would be really beneficial to have access to the raw file in case you need to make a change specific to your band's set up or an arrangement note.

According to the wiki, it says:

"Updates: I turned on file uploads, so you can upload all of your pdf files. As of now, we can't upload .mus files directly, so you will have to send them to me to get them updated. "

I suppose if someone wanted the finale file, they could ask for it to be e-mailed to them... and that way those doing the work would know who was using/altering it.

in theory if you zip the mus file we should have no problem uploading them
I'd love a nice zip of any finale files people have <!-- e --><a href="mailto:adriel@bluevortexmedia.com">adriel@bluevortexmedia.com</a><!-- e -->

I'm kinda dead in the water with the departure of Chris, so haven't logged in here of late. Still would like to help though. What does it mean when someone (JVB actually) posts that they have "posted to files section" on the wiki? I was looking to download Hungaria but didn't find the sheet.

Edit:

Okay, I found the files through Jack's posted link. Noticed that its title is "Special"...wondering if a link by that name is posted up on the fakebook site somewhere.

Hi Rob,

If you look on the main page, you'll see a link to "Special Pages". That will take you to a list of all kinds of pages, including files, images, etc.

best,
Jack.

Thanks Jack,

I hadn't paid attention to the links down the left side; only the tabs on top. Doh!!!

BTW, I heard back from Chris, who is well, and has been swallowed up by a big copying project for the time being. He hopes to be able to return when he completes that obligation, probably in a few months or so.

Great project - thanks everyone!
Can I make some suggestions
(and make myself available to assist)?

1) It would be more useful if a scan of the best available
(noncommercial) chart was used as a placeholder
for charts not yet finished. They could be
scanned and placed in PDF files. I can scan what I have and
send to anyone with PDF creation software.

2) If access to this Wiki is not restricted to members of this
site, it should be. A public collection of charts will be shut
down I'm sure.

3) The main Wiki page could use a description
(under the picture of Django) that ie. "Charts 'in progress'
are located in the Files Pages here: <link>"
It took me a while to research that they are found
through the "special pages" link.

thanks--Joel

Depends what you mean by "on." The point man, Chris, has been sidetracked, so this may be on permanent hold until/unless he returns. Someone else has yet to take up the cause, probably due to time constraints, etc.
