BUY THE ALBUM

New Banner Contest

I desperately need a new layout and banner and Im asking YOU guys for help. I need to keep having reasons to keep this blog up and I think a new layout will help me. Im slowly coming back and I want you guys to be apart of this change. My Mac doesnt have an application to make graphics like my Windows did before so Im kinda stuck. The banner should be the same size as the one I have now with color and obviously the title of the blog, and if you want to put a little something extra on it like a tagline, thats fine too. I thought this would be a fun idea for visitors to participate in the blog and help me bring it back.

Email all your entries to matt@nmnblog.com and Ill accept entries until further notice so send them in as soon as you can!

Thanks guys!

About Posting Full Albums

I know Alicia and Leona's albums both leaked recently and I havent posted them cuz I just dont know if I can. My internet connection here at school is ridiculous when I try to upload large files and usually takes hours to do which I dont have time for. I might post a couple individual tracks from the album though so you at least get something. And if you want the full album there are PLENTY of other blogs that have them available (the links to the right of this blog). Ill see how long it takes to upload an album and decide if Ill post it but for now, dont expect them right when they leak. Sorry

-matt

HEYYYYYY

I am SOOOOO sorry about not updating this blog as much as I could. Things here are so crazy with midterms this week and such. Ive really had a lot of things going on recently thats kept me away from here. Also, the iPod videos have been taking so long cuz whenever I use EvilShare or some other hosting site, it says it will take FOREVER to upload (No joke it will say like over a day). And my internet here at school isnt the fastest it could be so thats keeping me back as well. I will still continue to try and update this as much as I possibly can, I promise. Dont forget about this blog cuz its not dead, just going through a little dry spell. Thank you everyone who continues to visit here and support it - im doing this for you.

iPod Videos

MOVED TO ABOVE POST

Update

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of updates lately. I just moved into my college dorm today so as you can imagine, its been a pretty hectic weekend. I also wanted to let you know about the future of this blog. Since Im in school now my main focus will obviously be my academics but Ill try to update daily; also I dont know how much activity I can use on this  blog because the internet network im connected to at my school tracks downloads and illegal material, so you can imagine what state that puts me in. I know it sucks for you but it also does for me to cuz i really dont think i can stop what im doing in bringing you guys the latest media. I just dont know what my restrictions and consequences will be if i continue to do so. Ill still try to update as much as i can for now but we'll see where that takes me. Feel free to give advice in the comments cuz im really torn in this situation.

thanks,

matt

EDIT:

thanks for all the encouraging comments guys! it really means a lot. Let me try to explain the situation a little more clearer since im learning more about it every day. The school sets every computer that uses their internet system on a security line. The line monitors everything we do, not necessarily by the school, but by something like the RIAA. If i download a new song for album they could catch that and alert my school. If i get caught, i need to sign a form to not do it again, AND my music library is search for any illegal downloads that i cannot prove are mine. Since i cant claim ownership to most of the songs they would probably be taken away, which sucks. Im hating this as much as you guys cuz even im crippled in what i can download for just myself. Im still trying to decide on the future of the blog and will let you know.

thanks again

Quick Weekend Vaca

Vacation for 2 Weeks

Today I leave for my Graduation trip to Europe for 2 weeks where Ill visit Paris, Rome, Venice, Florence, Tuscany, and Voltar. That means there will be no posts on the blog till I get back on July 11th. I made two more posts below just before I left so i wouldnt leave you hanging with nothing. Hopefully once I get back there will be a bunch of newer and better stuff to update and share with. Also, Im going to take away the tagboard while Im gone because I dont want that to become a free-for-all without my advisory - Ill make sure to bring it back right when I come back home. For now, I suggest the blogs Music for All, XNicky, Ali's Blog, and Kevipod to visit while Im away cuz theyre all great. Ill talk to you when I get back!

Lack of Updates/Slowness

Im SO sorry about the lack of updates lately, things have been kinda crazy in my life right now with the end of the school year coming. I also went to the Gwen Stefani concert last night (which was amazing) so i missed posting yesterday too. Also, the TagBoard is getting kinda crazy! You guys need to seriously chill out with the American Idol fueding cuz I just went though all the posts and had to delete and ban 3 people, sorry. Everyone has their own opinions on the show and their contestant which needs to be accepted. Anyway, Ill try to look around for some new things to post for you guys to make up for this dry period.

Whoever Is Saying Im Spamming Their Site

Some person naming themselves "Annonymous" is claiming im spamming their site when I have no clue what theyre talking about. If your reading this, just know - its not me. I have no clue what your site is and I would never go around spamming on someone else's work. If you really did report me thats pretty sad because you wont even state what site you own so I can send you a personal statement. Im sorry for the confusion and hopefully you understand

-matt

New Banner and Colors!

2 iPod Video Problems

I just realized that Avril and Katharine's videos that I posted will not sync to iPod through iTunes. To fix this problem, Import the video as you normally would, then right click it and select "Convert Selection for iPod" and it will convert it for you. Then just delete the other file.

sorry about that

-matt
