Work remotely or in-studio with Windy Town — sonic perfection since the 1980s. Decided to encase each audio player in back background - for clarity and a sense of each item. Before I copy and duplicate 80 players - Should I change the audio player size? or Ok? Thoughts? In 2.0.0 Beta 1 - I am unable to curve the borders on the audio player - or container level… ---

WTH… why 80 audio players on the homepage? You wanna attract site visitors or scare them away? ---

Record Company…. I’ve got 1300 songs…. Only showing 80…. Not trying to scare people off - trying to display content… ---

I’ve thought of different ways to display content - but if I categorize for example: blues, alternative, classical, etc There is no serendipity - no exploration - no exposure to new different kinds of music… People would be funneled into a specific genre…. So I’m trying to mix all kinds of music together and let people explore different styles ---

Still no need to show so many on the frontage. That’s absolutely overwhelming and a terrible UX too. And that might drive users away, which surely isn’t what you want. You could offer a handful on the Homepage, (maybe in a slider, if that’s possible). Then describe what more you offer and guide your visitor from there. And if you insist of having 80 or more audio players on a single page (which I think is a terrible idea) warn your visitors before they click the link 😉 But if you insist on having those on the front page, try and resize/compress your images at least. Those alone are 5.5MB when loading your page. Though, that’s a rather general advice. ---

Hi Michael, I know you do all of the work. But perhaps you can ask @weaver to create a design for you which you can then adjust and fill with your content? He has a good eye for customer acceptance and the way to issue information on webpages… ---

Good idea 👍 I have been playing with artwork sizes on the large player - starting at 72 then scaling up to 96 This helps - imho - a lot ---

Taking my time on this… did 6 converts of 80 1 recording shows on mobile - then 2 recordings show until you get to the largest screen then 3 recordings per row… ![Screenshot 2026-02-13 at 5.25.33 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/7/3/73b7355d89e32f9732ac911d6131d59874e39a4b.jpeg)
