the media player doesn't seem to embed on my end. i guess that's being worked on, though?

An issue was indeed discovered with Firefox not handling the embedded player correctly. I'll be looking into that, thanks!

This is really great! I think it'd be cool if you could comment on the song directly from the embed. Although that's not really that important, since you can click the link to the song directly above the embedded player.

now it shows a copy of the entire website in the embed rather than a small media player. :S

Sounds neat, but can I please ask you to repost that idea in the QA forum, PhonyBrony? It's worth discussing properly with the team.

I just wrapped up a major rewrite of the embedded player. Take another look now?

I'm using Firefox or to be precise a Firefox based browser and the embedded player is working fine for me. It doesn't look the same as the picture though but I assume the design must of changed at some point during development and the picture is outdated.

As I said in my last comment, I rewrote the entire player from scratch yesterday. The picture became outdated less than 24 hours after I wrote this blog entry.

 

That's the nature of alpha software - rapid development, rapid changes!

Wow, you are most certainly the best web-dev I have ever seen.

I mean, talk about rapid development. A power Linux (or at least Mac) user, too, I assume?

I'm actually a devoted Windows 8 user, not something anyone typically wishes to associate with the term "power user". I do know my way around Linux, though; it's what I use on my server.

 

I'm a lot newer to web development than you might think; Pony.fm is a personal learning process for me almost from top to bottom. Glad you like how it's coming together, though. So far, most of the feedback on the site has been quite positive.

Well done. Not sure about the two colors you use, but otherwise very well done. I'm a huge fan of minimalist designs.

I know this doesn't sound related, but how to I embed a normal website? Like Straw Poll?
