HOW TO ADD SONGS
So first thing is to register http://www.hypster.com/register.php
Once you have registered go to www.hypster.com/myplaylist.php and Login. You can search for working copies of tracks you own already on the site from the SEARCH tab. Or you can select the UPLOAD MUSIC tab.
1. Click SELECT FILE. You can then search your hard drive for compatible MP3 files. Files must be 128 codec or less, and under 8MB.
2. Type in the song and artist name
3. Click ADD SONG TO PLAYLIST
You can also ADD songs by browsing other playlists and then hit ADD next to the desired song. If you are on someone's MySpace or other social network page and see the legacy player, hitting ADD will pop-up a song URL address. Just highlight that whole URL, copy it (CTRL-C) and paste it into your BROWSER ADDRESS BAR e.g. Where you type in web addresses like www.hypster.com, www.google.com etc etc. and hit ENTER. The song will then be added to your playlist (if you are not logged in it will ask you to login first)
http://www.hypster.com/addItem.php?id=17&singer=Kid Static
(highlight it all) and paste it into your BROWSER ADDRESS BAR
The Search Music feature is also pretty nice and you can search on the site by artist
(singer) or song title and find music on other user's playlists that you can add to your
own playlist. Let me know if you have problems or if you have any ideas for new features.
