Submitting a song/chart

[Kukurin]

It's probably just somewhere else, but I suck at looking.
Would I be able to submit a chart that I made?
If so, how would I go about doing it?

OP of this thread for rules and how to submit: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...d.php?t=116884

Make sure that FFR has permission from the artist for the song you use:

It's a Touhou remix, so I don't know how permissions would work.

Re: Submitting a song/chart

You would have to get permission from the artist doing the remix or the cover. ZUN has explicitly stated that he is not giving permission for his music specifically, but he has no issue with other artists creating their own renditions.

Then I have two problems.
1. How the hell am I supposed to hunt down the artist for a touhou remix in a SEA of remixes/artists (probably a stupid question, but asking anyway).
2. I actually lost the song name. Screwed up and renamed the file to make it easier to make a chart.

Send some emails. Perhaps even a letter if you really want. Get in touch with people in charge. Here is a thread you should look at in regards to getting in contact with people for conditional and blanket permission:

Re: Submitting a song/chart

That's great and all, but I still have no clue on how to find the song name. (I renamed the file, like I said before)

Re: Submitting a song/chart

check id3 tag? keep in mind this won't work if the music file wasn't tagged before.

Re: Submitting a song/chart

How do I do that?

Re: Submitting a song/chart

assuming you are using windows 7:

right click music file
properties
details tab

Re: Submitting a song/chart

I would start by stepping songs we already have permission for, not to discourage getting new permissions, but it's an awful lot to worry about for your first chart. Be sure to read that permissions thread thoroughly if you are going through with it.

Re: Submitting a song/chart

on the contrary, a lot of songs that would make for great files don't have permissions. not really sure why it matters if it's his first file in FFR or not. besides, how do you know he isn't already experienced?

Re: Submitting a song/chart

Oh I've screwed around with charts before, but I've never made a full one.
I have, however, made an edit for a Butterfly chart, made it harder.

Is anyone interested to see either of them? Even if I can't submit my own, I'd like to see others' opinions, see if I'm making my chart right.

Edit: I don't know how important it is, but I downloaded the song from youtube. The Name doesn't seems to exist in the details, nor probably existed in the original form of the file.
If there is anyone here that listens to a lot of touhou remixes, I'd like to ask if you know the name of it.

Re: Submitting a song/chart

if you pm your chart to me, i'll look at it when i get home. this would include me giving a high level overview of what i think is wrong if i suspect it to not be what ffr judges are looking for.

EDIT: if the file isn't tagged then yes, upload it and somebody might be able to give you some more information regarding it's origin.
