Mini Player Suggestions
 
Love using the mini player so that I can leave it going in the background while I work. I do have two suggestions though:

1. Song titles on the mini player: Would love to be able to just pull up the player and know what song I am listening to. I don't even have to know what anime its from (I can look that up itself), just give me a title (and maybe an artist)! ^_^

2. Embeddable Player: Giving people the ability to embed your player into their sites/blogs for readers to listen to while they read would be some great cross promotion.

We have something sort of like the second suggestion here: http://918thefan.com/forums/showthread.php?t=350

For the first, it should be noted that the flash player isn't made by us, but instead is made by Shoutcast. To customize our own takes a bit of time and money, so hopefully in the future we'll be able to do so. The only other way is checking on the site right now in the side bar. We'll have another function on the site telling you what's playing up about the end of January.

On a semi-related note, the PSP tells you what song is playing

Awesome tho I certainly wasn't implying 'I want feature and I want now!'. Just something to toss out while enjoying the station as it currently is. ^_^

Looking forward to the updates over the year.

Gathering you have a PSP, that is.

Rather than editing the embedded player you could add in the artist/title information into shout.php just above the flash player.

Or at least that's the way I would approach it.

EDIT

Decided to try to code it myself because I was bored.
