Feedback: Streamsy

[Calvin]

maybe add optional skins? idk

Yeah, do this, perhaps have like green, purple, red, blue, all them colours and it saves as a cookie or something.

Very nice, I personally like the purple, but any chance of different regional versions for those stations that have them or an iPhone friendly streamer?

I'll be including a prompt for the user to pick their local area on stations with regional variations, and meanwhile if I can configure the new JW HTML5 player to work with streams, the site should function on the iPhone. Thanks for all of your suggestions!

A skin changer will definitely be considered, and I'll try to have a look into personalisation from any HEX colour code. Thanks for the suggestion

[Apolva]

Favourited.

Possibly add "Now playing/current DJ"?

I love the website and it is very original as i have never actually seen a site like this before so good work!

[Jam]

Oh also, 5 Live Sports Xtra would be nice.

Devoleping a desktop app for this would be awesome too

[kk.]

Look into buying the .com domain if it's on sale cus it's a great name. Not sure on the layout though, purples a very strange colour. I wouldn't personally put in a skin changer. You're adding complexity which this type of site shouldn't have. Make or buy a layout which fits it's purpose and will appeal to all

Great, will be added this afternoon along with the rest of the national BBC stations.

It's a possibility so I'll keep an eye on it for the future, thanks!

I think the current layout has some really good use for this type of site (tried the Shuffle link?), and if there's just need for a change of colour then I think that's easily done, I'm trying to keep it simple but there's always improvement too. The .com domain becomes available soon, and I'll be trying to backorder it.

Thanks for the feedback

The shuffle link doesnt add anything to it though. Perhaps it should shuffle, and then play a random station? Because clicking that, that's what id thought it'd do. As you add more and more stations, perhaps a search function should be considered, as well as a sort alphabetically


A few notes

- Try changing the logo a bit. Perhaps incorporate a note into the letter. The M would be an easy one:

Show Hide

its not that i dont like the current one, i just thing the note at the end is tagged on

- Perhaps a 'Remember this station' and store it via cookies?

- I still hate the side Feedback button that every site seems to have nowadays.. especially since you have it in the nav too. Perhaps that should link to the uservoice account

- As said, colour should be more neutral. The grooveshark player is in green, so perhaps go with that?

- Nav should be central in the top banner

- Footer colour only goes halfway down.

(this is all in chrome, btw)


It's a great site and i look forward to seeing what happens with it. How are you making revenue btw? It might be worth moving the player down into the radio part, and adding a horizontal banner ad on the top?

[Apolva]

Add a stop button, so I can quickly stop the radio without closing the page.
