Larry Hawk contacted me to let me know he has set up a Frapper page for Synth Zone. It is a world map that members can post a flag on their world location and also a picture of themselves. It really is very cool. Thank you Larry for taking the time to set this all up for us. It would be great if everyone can add themselves to the Synth Zone World Map. Just click on the button below to go there.

Hehe, Cool idea! I've added myself as well.
I added a photo and now my text shows up twice (???).
Bad photo though, it's got my ugly face on it, spoils the entire picture .

Very cool!

I'm there now! I had to pick an alternate zip code of a nearby town. I'm in an unincorporated area and Frapper doesn't recognize it. So, I chose the "big city" of Half Moon Bay. It is a town of about 8,000 a few miles down the Pacific Coast Highway from me.

Cool idea, couldn't resist.

I'm in

I am in, with a sleazy photo.
but like an idiot I misspelled my name (boooooo)
How do I edit it?

Well I’m on; so don’t get jealous as it might upset your playing.

Bill

Cool idea!

Thanks Larry and Nigel.

Cheers.

I must be half asleep or brain dead, but I can't find any "Button" below to click to get to Frapper. What Am I doing wrong?

Nice idea! I pretty much "play by ear" (in fact, I listen attentively on SZ too), but couldn't resist putting my goofy mug out there! Hope everyone has a great week!
Randy

Hey Kbrkr - if the button doesn't appear, here is the web address: http://www.frappr.com/synthzone
That should get you there!
Randy

Wow! 30 in 1 day!

We hope everyone participates.

It's cool to put these all together in one place.

And if you make a mistake, let me know. Some edits need to be made by the Administrator.

Larry Hawk

I've just added myself, but since I'm at work ... no pic. Will we be able to add a pic later on?

cheers,

Hi It's Bill from Torquay, could you add (Abacus) after my name to aid identification.
Thanks

A true Gentleman, I thank you!!

Hi Larry

Tks for a great idea.

LAHAWK
PLEASE HELP HELP HELP me change my last name, I misspelled it like an idiot.
The right last name is Vassilogamvros

Great idea Larry,
I got this program in the mail from Bill Johnson in Australia a few days ago and thought about setting up a Tyros 2 site with it but have been so busy with the new Tyros 2 that I didn't get back to it yet.
I have signed up on yours here and added my picture taken last February on my 73rd Birthday. Thank you once again for all the things you do
Best to all
Bebop

Nice job Larry

This is much better as all kind of links as usually they are broken after some time.

Thanks
Fred

There were a few questions about photos, double entries, edits, etc. If you go the SynthZone Frapper page, there is a Help/FAQ link that should answer your question.

This is filling up fast!
It's neat to see where you are from, and what you look like.Well for most anyway.
Seriously
Thanks for participating.

Larry

Basically if you don't get everything right the first time, or move, or messed up your name, shout out, etc, you'll have to start over if it bothers you.

You'll then have 2 entries, one of which can be deleted by me.

So if you forgot a photo, start over, and I'll delete the non-photo on request.
If you misspelled your name, start over, and again, let me know exactly which entry to delete.


I as the admistrator only have the power to delete members, photos, and shoutouts. I cannot make changes to any of these.

So try to get it right, and complete the first time, and if it's not right, do it again, and let me know if you want to delete the wrong one

Got It?

Thanks
Larry

I've added my name & new recent pic to the list.

Though I'm feeling a bit under the weather with a cold today, it's nice to kick back & checkout your map to discover 'where on earth' the largest concentrations of synthzone arranger players live.

With the advent of FREE internet telephone + live webcam video, via Skype and/or MSN Voice chat, SZ members who live clear on the other side of the planet, all SZ members have now become virtually 'next door neighbors' and just a free Skype phone call away. The Synthzone Member Location Map helps brings things back into geopgraphical perspective. Thanks Larry. - Scott

Great initiative, Larry.
Nice to see various members from all over the world. In the map 'satellite' and zoomed to detailed I saw Leiderdorp has moved some miles, luckily not in the Northsea. Even the KN7 is not waterproof. I guess for our small country it is very difficult to place the sign on the right spot
Cees

Wow, Freddy: a Paul Reed Smith!
I hope you do a lot of Santana...

Hi
Could you delete my first attempt on Frapper, it just has the name Bill on it, location Torquay.
Thanks

One of the few pics in captivity without a bag over my head - but the wife looks lovely as ever!!

Thanks for the opportunity, LA Hawk.

Yes we do
Mostly the earlier work though..
Allthough I am the keyboard player in the band I insist on doing some guitarwork.

Bill,
I only see one Bill from Torquay
Larry

Hi Larry
The one I wish REMOVED is the one after Sheriff but before Lindafus, which just says Bill in the Name box.
The one to STAY says Bill (Abacus, in the name box and is after Scott Yee but before renig.
Thanks.

Hi Lahawk,
please remove the FIRST occurence of my name (between kwbmusic and Sherrif)
thanks a lot
theodore

....and somehow this page make my PC to lock up, (at work, win 98)

Great feature! I'm on the map.

In a week i get my T2 and as soon as possible i post a new song on www.vanandel.nu

[This message has been edited by Javaan (edited 11-08-2005).]

Bill,
Hopefully I deleted the correct entry.
If not satisfied please start over, and we'll try again.

Trident,
Sorry, I cannot edit, I can only delete.
If your not satisfied, you'll have to start over with a new entry, and then after I'll delete the bum one.
win98? What's that?
Seriously, I have no problems with lock up.
It may take a while for all the location 'flags" to load

It's probably better to submit remove requests to my email, rather than posting here.

Again, I can only REMOVE members, photos, and comments. I cannot edit them. If you want to change or add something, start over, and let me know if you would like something REMOVED (deleted)

Thanks to all who have particpated, and we hope all members will do the same. I don't know how many members there are in the Synth Zone, but so far 58 members have been "mapped" at the SynthZone Frapper.

SeeYa
Larry

Thanks Larry
You got the right one.

Bill

Larry ... I tried posting with a photo, but it would not work ... It worked fine without the photo ... what am I doing wrong, or doesn't anyone want to see me ???
t.

Not only is Larry Hawk's Frapper page interesting to see 'where' SZ members live (demographics), but because our SZ message board forum format doesn't support displaying 'self pic' avators next to our postings, the Frapper page helps to fill this void. Considering this . . .

I'd like to request that a LINK (icon) be placed at/near the top of the Synthzone Messageboard Forum Page to: 'Larry's Frapper Page', to provide convenient access to viewing SZ members pics. What do other people think of this idea?

Scott

Yes, I agree Scott. shboom had already suggested the same thing a few days ago. I had already been thinking about it and just haven't got around to it yet. Look for it very soon.

Nigel,
Did you get my email concerning the admin. rights for the Frapper page?

Frapper tip:

After the page is loaded, and you click on a member on the right, it displays the members pic, comment, and location on the map.

Also, try using the satellite view, and zoom in on a member. You can actually see where many members hang out. The extra close up feature does not work for all areas however.

Frapper is still developing, and promises to be even better soon. Members will be able to edit their profile. For now, only the administrator can make changes.

As of Nov 13, 2005, there are 68 SynthZone Frapper members. I know there are more SynthZone Members than that, so if you haven't signed the map...



Thanks for the participation
Larry

Yes, thanks very much for that Larry.

I have also added a permanent link now just below the Synth Zone logo on the BBS pages for people to "Add Yourself To The Synth Zone Map". This should ensure all members past and future get a chance to use the map.

Hey freddynl. Thats a very nice looking guitar in your Frappr photo. I'm curious, what sort of guitar is it ? It's a double cutaway something. Is it a PRS ???

Hello Nigel,

That's indeed a PRS custom 24.
It's a real do it all guitar allthough I allways have an LP as second guitar with me.

Fred

Hi Larry,
great idea. Can't seem to get the flag working though. Even changed my address back to Sydney . I'll give it another go.

best wishes
Rikki
