so i was looking at the new tilly and the wall website the other day and since the site is pretty damn cool and i am in the graphics' field i decided to check out the site designers' website. so i go there and they have a list of stuff they've made and stuff they're working on and ozma is listed as coming soon. check it out here...
http://www.fourohtwo.com/
yeah, i know, its not really that big of a deal, but i thought id share it with you guys and it also gives ya an idea (based on the designer's current/past work) of what the new ozma site will look like. does anyone know when the new site is coming? roughly? a guesstimate?
-Jordan :)
edit: btw, the same people or person designed the elected website.
cool find. +1

It will be a sad day. But I suppose it's the trendy thing to do these days.
God I hate flash.
While most of these flash sites are cool to look at, they are pretty annoying if ya ask me.
i love flash!!!
just thought I'd put some variety here.
a new site would be nice. i don't really care too much about how it looks. content! i need to know the comings and goings
Flash sites are exactly what the name implies... They look flashy (PUN!) but suck when it comes to navigation and such. I don't like them at all.
"ozma's new website" needs to be updated pronto.
For ozma's new futuristic sound they need a futuristic like web site, they need flash.
However I do miss the old ozma online. :-\
i hate your face
stifle it doornob.
You can't have "pronto" without "pron." Just thought I'd put it out there.
Flash is a douche.
why doesn't everyone just shut the fuck up? eh? ever think of that?

Thank you sir/madam (I forgot to chek before i hit reply).
I had to type that all out, IMDB didnt have it as a memorable quote.
whoooo ;D
off topic... ;D
Well the subject is on topic...
GUYS, can we play nice for 5 minutes?
Yeah, Ozma's coming soon thing has been up since the announcement. I look forward to CONTENT :D
Flllllllllllllllllllllllash...aaaaah!
I can't stand flash because most generally it's used to make dumb shit.Ã, Almost anything that's ever worth doing on a website can be done with HTML and maybe a few other little easily programmed tricks.Ã, Webdesign went to hell after the 90s.Ã, Luckily it's starting to recover, but it's a slow slow process.
As for fourohtwo.com, yuck. On top of being slightly painful to look at, it's a fine example of completely unnecessary use of flash. You could pull off pretty much the exact same thing with simple html, and it wouldn't require any "click to activate this control" bullshit.
flash is very handy in preventing/making it harder for people to steal your webcontent.

Isn't that slightly illegal-ish? Or is there any legal action at all?
Like, you couldn't just create a band a call yourselves the Beatles and make hit records.

They probably picked the name without any knowledge of real Ozma, though I can't imagine they had it first, and it seems like they would have found out about our Ozma with some very slight online searching easy enough. Though I wonder what the legality of it is and if it is effected at all by their nationality.
I think they're fine as long as they don't try to release stuff in the US. If ozma had a big international record label behind them it would be a different story.
what happens if ozma releases in france
hahaha its flash
wow, ozma is a good band!
actually, there is another band called ozma before 'this' ozma...
Yeah, I think there're three at this point. All fans of Baum's work, I guess. :)
On the name debate - name clashes happen. Usually you just change the name you're known as to release records in the country that has the clash - it's why Suede are known as The London Suede in the US, and why the Raconteurs have had to come up with another name for when they release/play in Australia.

That's as may be, but it's also very handy in preventing/making it harder for people to VIEW your webcontent. I hate webdesigners that don't take into consideration the fact that not everyone has the latest PC, the flashiest plug-ins and the best browser. The idea of the web should be that information is available to all who want to view it, in whatever format. The emphasis should be on putting the content there, and then constructing a pretty design around it in a way that doesn't interfere with the raw information still being accessible. Or something.
The new site is up! And best of all, "American & Canadian tour dates to be announced soon!" :D
Hahahaha. I can't believe my chipmunk mp3 made the official site!
Er..that's me confessing, by the way.
Edit: Well, the mp3 library at least. Not exactly on the official site. But it's on Daniel's site, so, that counts somewhat.
Edit2: It seems all the pages are hosted on Daniel's site. Okay then. Back to official recognition! Woo. The thing took me like 10 seconds to make. But I love it. :D
Also cool of them to post up the repository

Sick, they put "Battlescars (chipmunks)" on their site.
Damn, Ozma linked my site from theirs. ;D
I like the design, though for me it's taking a long time to load...they also have a nice mp3 section
comments?
I love you
It looks great... but that tiny content window compared with all the whitespace for navigation is really annoying when you're browsing at work in a smaller window so your colleagues don't see you're on the net instead of phoning up academics to ask them what they thought of books they got free copies of and if they're going to put them on reading lists for their courses starting later this year.
But that's a pretty specific complaint, I guess.
I'm sure the site is just temporary, and they will soon have a full-blown Flash website for us to "enjoy"
i'm sure bob mentioned it, but they link Bob's boots from the last shows we went to from off my webspace.
Kinda cool. :)
