Dan, I'm really sorry, but I'm afraid we will not be able to add new Soundcloud clips anymore for the foreseeable future.

Soundcloud has changed the way they allow third party calls/embeds in a way that makes it difficult to code. The developers at Jamroom would have to jump through hoops to meet the new criteria SC has instituted, and it's just not worth the time and expense for the developers to code new workarounds. Who knows, maybe SC will relax its requirements in the future again, but word is that SC is losing money and that might not be in the cards.

Luckily, our existing SC clips are continuing to function and play for us here... for now. I hope we can keep them working, but there are no guarantees even for that.

For now, if fotmd members want to add an audio clip, you'll have to use the old fashioned choice of uploading your audio file directly to fotmd, like we use to do on our old Ning site.

So sorry for the inconvenience... I'm just as disappointed as you are about this.

I can't seem to get the "share" link to work?
