Well I can say this I just got 4 emails from YouTube about 4 video's that UMG is claiming copy rights on these 4 video's and they have been on this youtube channel now for 9 1/2 years so these look to be something they are recording with all the new lineup and these 4 video's date back to the first DVD show

This only happens when they are going to use these songs again so they have youtube reclaim the copyrights from whom ever has posted them they are still on the channel to view just that CW gets the monetizing fund for each view and not the channel owner but don't make any difference for me as my channel is not monetized anyways

Just thought I would put this out there each time I see this they have rerecorded these songs.

Well they added another video today

I looked into it and YouTube is just rolling it out so not all can do it. My Youtube channel is nolonger Monetized they say the reason is to much reused content I have tried several times but they are always the same with the answer of no so I don't know if it's worth the time. This is why I started the channel over on Rumble there I can be Monetized and for some reason they are not as picky about copyrights like Youtube is. Years ago I had a radio station online with Celtic music and it was a flop it was very hard to get people to listen to it and that station was alot of work to get everything setup and all the music uploaded. But hey it was a good catch.

Thanks keep up the good work

Some of the newer AI models might be able to maintain it.

I currently have ChatGPT Plus which has gotten significantly better over the past 6 months at following instructions and making good choices. I use it mostly for coding and comparitive analysis, but it does make decent images without watermarks. It only adds Content Credentials metadata to the files.

ChatGPT Plus has generous caps (unlike the free tier which is limited to like 2-5 generation attempts per day). If I give it the banner dimensions, it might be able to arrange all the headshots. I haven't tried a collage and I'm not sure if it would handle 20+ input headshots, but we could give it a try. If it works, it might be as easy as just uploading a new headshot into a project each time there's a new member and letting the AI resize and fit everything.

The other concern though is that the more members there are, the more cluttered the graphic will get. Pretty soon, the photos will be ridiculously squished.

Ya that is a concern also with having to squished and the banner can't be any wider and I think the height is also coded into the forums code. I have been thinking of making a new board titled STANDIN'S and put the girls that are here only for 1 tour like Ciara Ní Mhurcú, Hannah Traynor, abd maybe Emma Warren and so on.

Ya I have tried using Gork Image and the work it can do is unreal and i have 16 years in Graphic imageing in printing I used to build the 4/color pages in Magazines by hand before computers started doing them. But I had Gork fix the banner i am using here now there was a s on the end of Forum and asked to remove it and fix the spacing and what you see on the forum is what it did. I have never used Chat gpt but i have used Gork and gork image many times and like what I see

Any one wishing to try there hand at the banner can always try the size it has to be is 1050 X 263 Pixels and the color hex code is 680066 that is the dark purple

I hope you all like the change in the Forum if you can't see the changes go into your browser settings and delete the history and chashed images.

I will work on the type colors alittle in the next few days

The poll for the banner was 69% to go ahead with this type of banner I had this banner for a long time but it had a s on forums.net and you know I used Gork Image AI and im WOW at what it does is unreal

Enjoy

Wonderful stuff. Thank you for your efforts. Are any live videos available from the last Christmas tour in 2025?

Sorry but the Christmas tour is one of the hardest tours to get video's from. There are some from the 2024 tour but none from the 2025 And thanks for checking out the channel enjoy

this is to archive the dates only

urbanracer34 you are right she has not logged in in over 10 years I have contacted the host several times tring to get ahold of her or to buy the domain name but was always the same answer we will email her and see what happens but nothing ever did.


stars_at_dawn it would be a very hard thing to do to bring data over to this forum because the data files are shared with  the high kings and I looked and there forum is also dead and I have asked over the years for people to bring anything they have posted they would like to save over here. But very few users of the old forum are here there are a few but not alot.

The Old forum the domain is good till 5-2027 so it was just renewed not sure why the web site has gone down but it is very old software and very outdated

Hey Tom I was going to add Alex's christmas album to her list but you have that in some codeing so please add

The Secret of Christmas 2025


Thanks
