With a lot of coding by LilJim, the Audio Portal system is starting to come full-circle. The Flash Portal submit form now includes fields to credit music from the audio Portal. It is an easy system to use - simply plug in the ID numbers that are part of the audio filenames.
You can see a good example of the new system in use here.
Now NG users who submit their own home-made audio will have the chance to see their names alongside some big-time Portal submissions! To encourage Flash authors, we will be looking to promote submissions that feature music by NG users. Using commercial audio in your Flash isn't a viable long-term option, so we suggest utilizing the Audio Portal whenever possible!
The more Flash artists use it, the more musicians will want to feature their music there - and vice versa. We gotta work together to make this system a success!
