After two months in the darkness Im proud to announce looperman V2. The site has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. The database has been streamlined and the design given a facelift.
All the previous data is intact as are all your previous user accounts. You will need to request a new password though as they have all been re encrypted.
Hopefuly you'll find the new design easier to use and I'm sure before long you'll know where everything is. You will notice some features that used to exist on the previous site are no longer with us and some new features have made an appearence. Thats not to say that some of the missing old features will not make their way back into the new site in the future.
While we are testing out the site in a live environment some areas such as the forums are accessable via invite only. If you dont already have access and think that you should then get in touch. Access will only be granted to users who were active previously though. Another change is regards uploading tracks. For now you are limited to uploading only one track per day rather then the five per week rule that we used to have. There will be a few changes to how the featured tracks work too but Ill let you know about then when its ready.
Youll also notice that we now have a blog. Ill be using this to post articles and tutorials in future and will be moving stuff like the site news and announcements here instead of the forums.
All in all there is a lot more to come and some sections still work in progress but for now enjoy the new site and if you find any problems get in touch.
Finally thanks for all the support from those of you who waited patiently and a massive thank you to those who helped out with beta testing.

Shan, I'm not sure how you did all of this work by yourself, but you deserve a huge virtual pat on the back for a job well done. The "new" Looperman.com looks fantastic and functions as good as it looks.
Thanks for your herculean effort on our behalf. It is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!!!

We seem to have been experiencing pretty sluggish page loads since the site came online today.
Im working through a few things and ironing out the problems as we go so stick with it.
If you spot any particular issues you can always mail me via my profile page with some information on whats wrong.
It all seems to be coming together nicely. Well done mate and despite the moans and groans we all do appreciate your hard work.

wicked i thought id lost all my tunes and that.
Its good to see ya back looperman.
love the makeover
Glad to be back, but it says I'm not authorized to upload any loops? Would like an answer..I'm really eager to start uploading some more loops
Hi Zatch, after taking a look at your profile and loops you have already uploaded I added you to the pre auth list. One thing to mention though is try and use the description field to describe the loop rather then adding a generic message.
I just wish that we could upload more than 1 track at tha moment. Other than that, I happy tha Loop is up and runnin'.

only problem is i cant post in forum and cant upload loops...
on help page is just a question about forum no answers
Yahoooo!!home sweet home!!!thnx Shan!!great job
great job dude. glad to see the loop back up and runnin.
This is so great, nice look on the site and I'm working my way around it.
Two questions however:
Tried to search for my friend using his handle as ID, didn't work and used the other option (keyword) and got a lot of hits. Is that the intention of the search opportunity?
The other was about comments, the list starts of with the first at the top – how to see the most recent posts?
I do appreciate that the site us up again, there's no one like it in the world and I thank you for your efforts, Shan.
Great work guys!!!
Standing ovation for all your hard work!
Yes!!! School is back in session I had to miss class for awhile but it was worth it im luvin the new design thank you and much luv to the looperman community.
WOOH loopermans back online!
Im having trouble staying logged in though
Everytime I try to look at my tracks or go to upload one, the site logs me out.
Can you help me out?
it is SO GREAT to be back and see everyone here again..... i missed you guys...cant wait to hear what you've been up to.
wb loopers...but how can i get permission to post in forums ??? information would be great...thx...JW...
Hmmm, I have the same prob as JW, plus I found it hard enough to find my way around with the old system, this is worse to me, but we'll see how it pans out!
Glad Looperman's BACK! For Real.
