Re: Stolen Instrument Registry - Looking for Feedback

Just to wrap this up. I've decided to not pursue this project. The utter lack of positive response from forums, musical organizations, etc even individual musicians tells me this is not an idea worth pursuing.

I've encountered the same thing with sax and trumpets players in their forums. Such a limited and, I'll say it, selfi...

Stolen Instrument Registry - Looking for Feedback

Hello all. I'm a musician (saxophonist) and a technologist. I've created an online resource for musicians to assist them in recovering a lost or stolen instrument. There are plenty of very limited lists and whatnot online but they all lack two things: being searchable, and having broad exposure outs...

Re: Contacting Admin

Thanks, I must lack some access. In the PM area all I see is You are not authorised to read private messages. And no way to send one. Also tried clicking on those usernames. No luck.

Contacting Admin

Just joined and would like to contact the admin before posting. I don't see a way of doing that. Also don't want to just make my post without checking with the admin first.
