I don't think it's a redesign. If it were a redesign, they would have a smooth transition. Something like this indicates to me that a server or two took a crap and died.

It makes me wonder if they are going to go away from Fullerene completely now since V is off Interscope. I was thinking the same thing VaderDawsn was with it is possible Interscope pulled the plug. Although, since there is a link to vc.com on TheInc's site, I'd guess either V or one of her peeps has the property rights to vc.com, or TheInc may have bought property rights from Interscope.

Either way, it will be interesting to see what happens.
Title: Vanessa's Web Site -- (Discuss here!)
Post by: walking in the rain on March 07, 2007, 07:35:43 pm
v's myspace still links to vc.com too, for whatever that's worth...

it would be nice to have a more user-friendly and a regularly updated website for v, whether it's through fullerene or not.  she certainly deserves it -- and so do we!!  :)   i hope that's what the web techies are working on for her, whoever they are.  (http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/confused0023.gif)

oh well, 'til the site comes back up, i'm just going to sit here and try to wait patiently...and try not to bite my nails as i anxiously await an update and new album news!!  (http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/expressive/meditate.gif)

pure imcompetence, there is no other word for it.

People move websites all the time... from registar to registrar.  from host to host.  Hell, we have moved nessaholics.com and the forum and didn't experience several days of outages.

It's just amazing to me, Vanessa needs to have her name out there.  What if someone new heard of Vanessa and wanted to check her out, goes to her website and it is DOWN?  so lame.

honestly, i don't think it's a big deal right now. new people AREN'T going to hear about vanessa because nothing is happening with vanessa. she's in the studio, the end. yeah, she should have a site up but it's not like we can't get our vanessa news fix since the site is down; there is no news. and i'm sure once there is some, the site will be back up to announce it.

edit again:
tried again and got the site working fine,
keep refreshing and got part 404 errors, like the pic above...

I figured it out.

http://www.vanessacarlton.com redirects you to http://www.umrg.com

Sounds like a bad re-direction to me since both URLs should point to the same site (either vc.com or umrg.com).

UMRG is Irv's parent label, so it would appear that they've obtained the site and are probably working on redesigning it.

That is just my guess from putting all the pieces together.  :lol:

this attitude is exactly why it's down.

these people get paid money to move websites.  It isn't a complex process.  From someone that has worked in the industry for over 10 years if they actually gave a sh*t they could do this seamlessly.

I really don't think it is "acceptable" for someone to take a site down for days of a major recording artist.  It is the overall level of acceptance for incompetence that allows people to do things like this without competence.

I run a major network with many customers, if i operated it as such where it was "optional" for something to be up then we wouldn't have many customers.

i don't really understand why you're surprised. vanessa hasn't been a priority for interscope or the dumbasses at fullerene for a couple years now. of course they don't give two shits about her website, it's always been a piece of crap with impractical software.
yes, they should have the site up because she is a customer. from a business standpoint this is correct. but like i said, we have an entire 20pg thread devoted to the o-site and how horrible it is. i figured most would be used to the incompetence by now. besides, unless you go work for fullerene yourself, i doubt things will get better in the future if irv and vanessa decide to keep them on board.
and it might sting a little to think that not that many people are actually missing out on vanessa because her site is down, but at this point, it's true.

Interscope has nothing to do with Vanessa anymore. They've not been her label for years. The fact is that WHOM EVER the fault goes to is incompetent as a web host. I doubt that V's site is going to have a makeover, and I don't see her CD coming out until probably October from what's happening right now. It sucks, yes, but it's the truth. And that's all.

We could just as easily be super-anal mods about everything and delete every and any post that might be seen as offensive, controversial, etc. We just like to think most people have the common sense and decency to respect others and participate in the discussions without picking fights and insulting each other.

It is a fact of life that in some course of time you'll have to interact with people you don't agree with. In the real world there isn't anyone to tell you how or how not to interact with them, so we like to think people have learned to be respectful of others, even when you disagree. If not, that is when we need to step in. You guys were asked nicely twice to drop it, and it didn't happen. There were definitely some inappropriate comments made, and now those are gone.

Lets return to the original discussion. -B

omg, they figured out the webserver configuration!

btw, this has nothing to do with interscope.  She left them, they kept her site up.  When you are assuming a site the receiving host should be ready for it... you can even do clever things like set it up in advance, get everything working, customize your hosts file so when browsing to BOTH www.vanessacarlton.com and vanessacarlton.com it goes to the proper place and TEST all the links.

Whomever is taking over now seems just as incompetent as the past.  That is why this is still an interesting topic of discussion.  The home for a better admin seems to not be the case.

i think the point was that even tho vc.com is back up the forums are still down.

I wonder if they plan on keeping the forums?  Do other Inc artists have forums?

For as much posting as V does, they could get by with just a journal like so many other sites have and avoid the upkeep of a forum.

heres the thing...
the company Fullerene is kind of strictly an interscope message board.

I've seen it happen before when a band moved from interscope to a new label, their fullerene board is gone, and a new one was put up.


it's pretty standard for a musician or band to have a message board of some kind on their website, so I'm guessing pretty soon we're going to get a new Vanessa Carlton one.

i about 99% can say that the fullerene board we used so much and hate so much will soon be gone :-p

it has actually gotten less "standard" over the years because a message board can be such an annoyance.  I have seen quite a few artists just go for journals where they can "post" ... we all know how much priority they have put into the message board over the years so maybe they'll just pass on the board thing.

at least we'll still be here and we have archived all of Vanessa's posts =)

I think many of us are a bit frustrated.  Her site/board may have been down, but her myspace has been up, with no updates (as far as I am aware).
I am wondering if something private has come up..or business-wise. I hope VC realizes that her fans have not forgotten about her or abandoned her. We're just eagerly awaiting some news. We want to help promote her efforts. But keeping us out of the loop makes that almost impossible.

IRV GOTTI'S TAKING ON THE POP CHARTS!

I'm hearing that Irv Gotti is going further into the pop world, after signing pop sensation Vanessa Carlton. He's signed another group that has garnered a buzz, from what I am getting. I heard he's brought another group called The Thunderkatz in to his realm. The TKz are like a mixed bag of music. Pop. Rock. Hip-Hop. Punk. All rolled into one. They have several different races and a female too so there have been comparisons to everybody, including the Black-Eyed Peas, N.E.R.D. and others. Anyway, they might have formally signed them after expressing his admiration for them earlier this year. Irv's on the move!


I hope hes not forgotten Vanessa!!! (http://www.allhiphop.com/rumors/?ID=1254)

There has to be an official page before the release of Heroes and Thieves, even if it's not vanessacarlton.com. Vanessa is not like those indie musicians that are starting their careers, she has a significant fan base and it would be too lame not to built an new site soon.

I got that same web page on my google alert and I hope what you hope that they have not forgotten. Eh I mean I am sure they are just workig on stuff to to promote the album and in no timr stuff will happen. Like me ok I live in illinois- suburbs about 1 hour away from chicago and boy has it been cold over here! I figure once the days start to clear up and warm up we will here news. Or so I hope.  :cry:

That's true!, Christina's site was down for a while and it started working again a few weeks before the release of Back to Basics with the new theme. Maybe we are all worried over nothing, I mean, Christina has a huuuge fan base and her site was down too.

It could still be released in the spring.  It is not over yet.  Maybe they just want everything to be set up completely before they launch everything.  There could be a whole number of things going on in the background we just don't understand the whole nature of.  Be patient. :)  If Irv was true to the extent he wants to promote her then maybe they are building a whole production behind the scenes and then Blam!  Vanessa will be everywhere all the time.

But remember who's saying this, I don't have any idea either on what is up.  I'm just guessing and hoping.

perhaps the reason why they shut down the website, coz many people are fighting, some are really bumb waiting for v's post. And there's this one guy who hates irv coz he's black or something... and we we just try to push him out of there, he's racism wasn't so right. Everybody there was so mad at him and just everything g0t messed up...topics are all about hating...blechh...  but still we try to keep it down low and just ignore the guy. and keep the site all about vanessa and be patient for her comeback... apparently they shut it down...

From her Myspace blog:

 
   
Heroes and Thieves update


hello,

i know i've had a bit of a "pregnant pause" between this note and the last. i am in sf now finishing up vocals on a brand new song that's definitely making the album. possibly the first single : ) it's called "my best" and it makes me sad when i sing it (in a good way). i'm heading down to la to mix a few songs this weekend. i finally got to listen through the entire record last week and it's been non stop on my speaker since. (my neighbors think i'm an ego-maniac for sure). i feel like i'm sitting on a record that is my most honest to date. and i enjoy hearing it as if it was somebody elses. that's a first. lots of bold moves on this one. it is dear to me, partially because of the process it took to get made. the stevie tours, the switching labels, weeks of feeling like i'm in slow motion and then intense giddy night sessions, writing in cafes, these moments (there are 2 many 2 mention) add up in my mind and become this album. i'm in the home stretch. your interest in what i'm up to, despite such a long break, makes me overwhelmed with feelings of luck and appreciation. Heroes and Thieves!!! xo v

YAY!!!

I don't want any of her music to leak out.  At least we know things are really rolling along.  Just be patient, and in a little over a month we can hear the single and cheer it on and watch it go up the charts.  I know she said she will keep making music no matter how big the album but if you like her music and want her to do well we just have to be patient so they can be ready for the blitz.  If Irv is behind her as much as we keep hearing then I think she will do well.  Support real music!

Unfortunately nearly every album leaks prior to its release date, I really don't think there's much any of us or the record label can do in preventing a leak. Let's just hope that the album is good enough so that it'll warrant a purchase from those who will download it. And if it's given enough promotion I'm sure people who don't know how to use file sharing programs such as bittorrent will go to stores to purchase it.

I remember when Harmonium leaked I was all very annoyed with you guys from attempting to keep the files to yourselves in an effort to prevent it from leaking further. lol So I found a bittorrent of the album and downloaded it that way. Haha. I still purchased the album though, naturally. Actually I pre-ordered it at the Vanessa show I went to and she signed the little album cover slip that you recieved with the pre-order.

ANYWAYS, my point is, if people really want to download Heroes and Thieves, they'll find a way to download it. We can only hope that they'll purchase the album as well.

Why do albums keep leaking?


It basically boils down to an issue of money, much like everything else in the world. People don't want to pay the inflated prices for CDs, so they find other means aquiring them. When a CD leaks it's usually an advance copy of the album sent out to radio stations and such, and someone will get ahold of it and distribute it online. *Shrugs* Such is the way of the failing music industry.

I mean, years and years ago when an album reached number 1, the numbers needed to achieve that were quite the feat. Now albums that reach number 1 can barely maintain that position because number 1 albums are lucky to even sell 50,000-100,000 copies on their debut week. The Internet has changed things enormously. iTunes has also impacted the music industry in a negative way. Now instead of purchasing an album, you can pick and choose the songs you like from an album. And these sales aren't figured into sales charts either.

iTunes is an interesting thing, it's great and convieniant sure, but it's forced the music industry to morph and change in ways to suit Apple and iTunes, not artists. I'm ranting again, I'll shut up. lol

I remember about the advanced copy situation.  You would think they would learn to use the internet to their advantage instead to their determent.  They could use a secure website with login names for people who need to listen to albums in advance that stream the music instead of giving a download or hard copy.  It doesn't totally solve the problem because people could rip it off the stream but there are things people can to try and do to solve the problem of leaking albums.  They would just have to consult the right software companies and IT professionals to find a way to make it safe to share copies with a much reduced risk of there being the same problems there is now.  Banks use internet banking, why can't record companies do the same?  They could steam it and then also send them a program the radio stations use on the computers they stream on to make sure there isn't ways to transfer the streams, rip them, ect., ect.

I don't know enough about i-tunes to know how to solve that problem.  I don't have or ever have had an i-pod.

I see the issue of pre-release leaks as distinct from that of piracy in general. I make no apologies about downloading pre-releases. I don't do it because I'm cheap (although, I am). I do it because I'm anxious to hear the new music. Of course, once the album drops, I will do the right thing. I preordered Harmonium long before I downloaded a leak of it.

please.. i hardly feel sorry for the record companies. there's tons of money in the music industry. the problem isn't distributing the music properly, it's about properly distributing profits. besides, most record companies only care about putting music on the radio that is immediately appealing, crap that sounds the same because most people don't like hearing something that's different. I think illegal downloading will be beneficial to the music industry in the long run as it gives indie bands a chance to get their music to the masses, and at the same time diminishes the power of the major labels.

I second that!!!

I guess one way to solve the itunes problem is just to record how many times a song is downloaded on itunes/napster and then just add that number to sales for the record. It's the same as if someone is just buying the CD of the single - they are just buying the mp3 of the single instead. itunes and napster already keep track of this number so it shouldn't be that hard to transfer the music industry. it is just a matter if they want to do it or not - paying for the person to transfer the numbers and varify that they are true or something...

also, the Inc Records website was updated on the audio section for Vanessa Carlton

featuring a different version of Nolita Fairytale, possibly the full album version?

I'm saving all the variations of the images every time they change :D

I wish they'd take polls from us. lol I think the site is still under construction because maybe Vanessa still hasn't had a chance to work on any artwork and themes for the album since she's so busy getting the single into gear and what not. I think once she gets some awesome artwork planned out, they'll incorporate it into the website and it'll open up sometime afterwards, hopefully shortly. lol

When I listen to the songs we've heard from Hs&Ts though, I really don't think a black, red, and white color theme would suit them well. I do picture dark colors though, like... varying shades of blues and greens.

given how much putting the swf on other sites is going to promote Vanessa, i would assume in this case it isn't an issue... plus if they change it (colors, etc) then all the sites that link to it will have the updated version... assuming they keep the name the same.

It's when you go straight to the source code and steal another site's bandwidth. Which costs money.

it looks good. I think that the "Heroes and Thieves" title is definitely drawn and it adds to the whole artsy feel to it.  :)
Edit: ew they mispelled "thieves" on the the very top. it says "Vanessa Carlton- Heroes & Theives". I before E!!!

It's the small part around the middle of the "S" that looks like an uppercase cursive "I". "&" is just a more elaborate means of writing the word in short form, there are other signifiers for "and" as well, such as "+". Which I believe is the sign used for the logo, but the way it's positioned (So that it lines up with the "S" for artistic purposes) and the way that two ends of the plus sign connect in a loop (This is common with use of the plus symbol in writing, the loop allows the symbol to be written in one fluid stroke, instead of making two short strokes to write the symbol, which takes up more time) make it look like a cursive "I" here in the logo.

Yeah probably, I only looked at it for a few minutes when I first went to the site and saw all those things they were talking about and then the mirror of VC stuck out at me.  The same stuff happens with clouds when people look at them, even though they are just water drops with dust.  People naturally make more out of something then it really is, especially if you are a dreamer and it is something randomly sketched out like that.  I personally apologize for making it more than it really is.  You are right it is just dots that flow around the name like a fountain.

I am very impressed with the new web site!  Although, the Bio section has some old information in it, like Heroes and Thieves having a Spring 2007 release.  Also the Heroes and Thieves page has a different track list from what's on the VH1 The Leak site.  

Looking forward to the store, performances, lots of tour dates and maybe new message boards (sans drama?  Ha.)

Okay, is this topic 9962 or 10990?! That was irritating because I was trying to reply right when that happened, but I guess that's what happens when you change the title. :x

Anyway, it is me or does it seem like most of the information in the bio was written by fans? :?:

It was 9962 but I broke it, so now it is 10990  :lol: -B

If it goes live again and I see it I'll take some screen shots.  The intro page was the red background with just the Cameo and you had to click it to get to the main page.  If you look in the "I have the album" thread there is a picture of the back of the album case.  The main page looks like that, but with Vanessa and Victor drawn in the middle around a camp fire.  There was also a music player at the top of the page.  The songs I got to before I had to close out the page were Spring Street, Nolita and Hands on Me.  

As mentioned above you had to scroll over certain parts of the drawing to get to news, tour, boards (coming soon), store (also coming soon), a performances secion, music, and photos.  The music section was basically the three albums cover art and track listings.  You could click on some titles from Heroes and Thieves to listen.  The photos were basically the same as the promos we have, except for two I haven't seen of her posing in a white outfit with Victor.

I'm a bit confused - shouldn't the new site be up soon since the record comes out tomorrow? I guess they just still have too much work to do before they can officially put it up. But it would look so much more professional for her to have a real page that functions when the CD comes out....especially for people who are watching her on Regis and Kelly or Leno and start googling her.

I'm dumb...hahaha. I just saw the cameo thing and I'm thinking "where's the new site!?!?!?" :x .....I figured it out though.

I wonder why they chose to have only Nolita Fairytale, Hands On Me, Spring Street, The One, & Home on the music player thing...Those are the five songs that i would choose as singles though so I'm happy. :D

her album sounds like crap to be honest. I am thoroughly disappointed and would not be surprised if the album were a flop. Musically it is not very satisfying as her last two albums... just really primitive song writing in terms of technique. I guess all she can rely on is the image and promo she can get from IRV
