I'd like to valuate a new idea.I don't know the server limit but i think is not a problem to ad for every image also a song in a low resolution as we can find on flash site intro(i mean about 200k or 300k of mp3 in a low resolution).No problem with the law couse the limit of 300k it's only a loop of an original song.
Let me know if is a good idea
Thank you for your collaborations

I don't think so. I find that looping songs etc. on websites are very irritating. It would also ad to download time. 300k (song) + 100k (preview image) + 20k (comments etc) = 420 kb for a image page. Now for those using dailup: 420/5 = 1 min 24sec just to open an image. That will cause me to stop looking at images that use songs, because it just takes too long to load.

It's just my opinion though...

Well i appreciate your opinion.Most of us now are using fast connection but to resolve the problem with the low connection we can put a buttom music only for who want to hear the music loop and not as default dowload.

I also find looping music on websites very irritating, even tho I'll be moving back to school soon, right now I am on dialup and can sympathize with Crusader. Also there are 12405 images on the site right now, if everyone had a 250k song, that would mean for an extra 3 gigs of server space, not to mention there are still 75 or so new images a day, even with the upload limit. That and the extra coding to add to caedes already busy job. Perhaps you could attempt to server the music on your own server and see if caedes will allow you to stream it from there. I dont particularly like it, but perhaps others will enjoy a little music with their images. And maybe caedes disagrees with the server space. Never know.

This is the most persuasive argument against having music on a webpage that I've been able to come up with: Do you like to listen to music? If yes, then do you have the capability of playing your own choice of music while you use the computer? If yes, would you rather choose the music yourself or have a stranger choose it?

So in the end, the only people who would actually like having music on a webpage are people who don't want to make the choice of what music to listen to.

As for suggesting a music, you can always do that in the image's description.

I am totally against the idea of having music on the images. Music on websites irritates me beyond all reason.
