excellent job Citronic. Looks like you used almost every quote I sent. its cool how you have hidden sounds under the pictures too.

One thing though on one of the quotes he says "get this through your head you muthafucka you". It sounds like it skips and cutout the word "jew".

This is gotta be the best Pesci soundboard ever, I dont think anyone could top it without copying your board. What are you doing with hosting? you send it to that one guy?

Yeah, I deliberately missed out the word 'Jew' so it could be used on anyone. I didn't think it sounded too bad. You think that's an issue?

Yeah, I will send it to that guy. I emailed him yesterday but will wait for a reply before sending the board.

No it isn't - that sucks.

No doubt it is the best Joe Pesci soundboard - you can barely hear the audio in most of the others. Also it looks very nice too. I'm looking forward to having some good arguments with telemarketers :)

I agree I don't like how one or two quotes are edited, also a few related quotes aren't located next to each other either but I guess if you've reused old soundboard formatting that's probably hard to avoid.

I know how much hard work it can be editing audio and making stuff in flash so thanks for your efforts.

edit - you should keep the word Jew in - first becasue i think it is usually best to keep quote true to the original when possible, but more importantly it will be even funnier calling people Jews when they are muslims or something.

BTW guys by posting in spam thread you are actually helping the spammer by bumping the thread higher. Never post in such threads, just use the "report post" feature.

Why are hidden buttons so bad? All the best boards have that feature. You can click the pictures when you want to use the sounds underneath and the rest of the time the board looks more interesting.

I could've had any of the clips any place I wanted and tbh I just used another project as a springboard. As it turned out I virtually had to re-invent the whole thing in any case. The main reason I made this board was to address the issue of sound quality, which I've done. I feel that the layout of the board is a lot clearer than any of the others around, so I don't think you can complain too much.

I can put the original 'jew muthafucker' quote back, that's not a problem. What others are you concerned about N00N00. I personally feel that I was very reserved with my editing clips and only did so where necessary.

That 'modecum of gratitude' clip springs to mind right now!

The only clip I really noticed editing was the "what if i was to kick the everlovin shit out of yer" - it flows better with "just" in there and it is too famous to change anway. I guess you version still wroks - the editing of the Jew clip is the worst becasue it is so noticeable due to the jump in the audio.

Pictures are ok i guess, but i always forget there are sounds behind them :banghead: :banghead:

I would put the word jew back in, because his voice skips, and also that may tick people off that are aware of that quote from the other Pesci board. I think the hidden sounds are cool, and most of the good boards use them, especially my favorite Arnold Election soundboard that Andrew B. made. I guess to make people happy you could put a note saying "click pictures for extra sounds".

I dont really see an issue with the location of the quotes. I think they are in good order, and like any soundboard once you remember where the quotes are located you will be fine in using it.

Guys, any alteration you want made let me know. I've changed the 'jew motherfucker' one now. N00N00, any clips you want juggled around I can do that fairly painlessly. There's no point in this board if people aren't totally happy.

I am going to leave the pictures/hidden clips where they are though as I think people will get used to them. I think enough soundboards exist with similar features for people to look out for that kind of thing. The main reason I created them is to save space without sacrificing the look. No-one likes a bland board with just a bunch of text and borders.

I removed the link for the time being. Since I'm changing it, I don't want the wrong one being hosted everywhere.

the "something big together" and "depend on you" quotes should really be together though it doesn't really matter as they work fine by themselves, I was just expcting to having them next to each other that's all.

Thinking about it, it would be more important to have the "precautions" and "merry christmas" next to each other seeing as they both have festive references. Alternatively, just make it clear the precautions clip is xmas related, eg by calling it "xmas precautions"

Also I would have gone with more comedy music rather than the music in clip 2. I guess ideally the christmas song would be best (or maybe your remix of it) - then you'd also have one of the best soundboards for doing pranks in December.

edit - been playing with the sb for 10 mins now, only just found the tyre quotes. :banghead: Nice how you've got a bonus tyre quote in there - no one can doubt it is the best Joe Pesci board now :lmao:

edit again - you don't need teh tyre quote in there twice becasue you've got spacebar to stop all sounds. Definitely remove the shorter clip cos it is pointless and sucks!

Good point. :p

do you have the quote where he says "you know I get calls from back home every fucking day"

Also, you have "I think I want my money back" on the soundboard in 2 spots. Top and lower left

One other thing while you are changing sounds, I noticed on all of the tire quotes there is a clicking sound at the end of each quote. If the person on the other line heard the clicks they may suspect they are talking to a computer. I can probably get those clicks out with audacity if you want.

Citronic27

10-22-2006, 08:31 PM

Yeah I did notice that. I just had another little edit and I think I cured that.

EDIT. Yeah, gone :)

:ohnoes: :ahhh: :)

There were a couple of things that were pointed out, he wanted to fix. So he took down the soundboard and posted up the mp3 instead. I was a little confused at first, but I read on and figured it out.

Citronic, if you could send us a copy via PM. I'd like to give it a test drive as well.

Question: do you think those lines that link associated quotes are a help or just clutter up the board and make it more confusing?

JerkyMyTurky

Just gave it a quick look. A few of the buttons have muffled sound to them. "Good Ass Kickin," "Alright," "JT," and "Here 2 Collect." I don't know if this is just on my system, but those 4 audio clips are very muffled. Other than those, I think everything works and looks fine. I don't mind the hidden buttons behind the images, as I've become used to it by now. Maybe you can put a little text on the corner of the images, such as "click here for more buttons." It wouldn't make it hidden, but it doesn't have to be. Images on a soundboard give it more appeal, so I wouldn't want to see the images completely removed. Also noticed, there isn't a preloader, which you usually put on your soundboards. I think its a little burdensome to have to wait for a preloader or have to listen to an introductory theme song. I wouldn't so much if there was a simple "skip intro" option, that would jump straight to the board. Also, maybe include a couple of sample calls. I don't know, but I think having a few calls hosted on the board will help the soundboard spread around alot quicker and adds more content to the board. I'm sure N00N00 can create a really good call with those relentless telemarketers that call him up.

Question: do you think those lines that link associated quotes are a help or just clutter up the board and make it more confusing?

I think they are helpful, especially for first timers trying to get used to the soundboard. It'll definately help the call going along more smoothly. I say keep them, they aren't distracting at all.

The are great when used correctly as you have done, and make a board a lot better. The only unnessecary one you seem to have is the one connecting the word "fucker" - that can be used anywhere and doesn't especially fit in with the quotes it is connected to.

Muffled sound huh? Well, those clips do sound okay through my speakers. Not as good as the rest (more background hiss), but good enough. That said, all the ones you listed all came from the same place. So, obviously your system picked up/accented something in those clips mine didn't. N00N00 kinda agreed with you about the preloader, saying he didn't care for the intro music or having to click the start button, so I decided not to bother with one this time. My Tom Hanks board loads in a scruffy way sometimes and would benefit from a preloader. But the reason for that was that I hadn't placed all related items together in the project so the different parts just load very sporadically. I think I have that pretty sorte with the JP board.

Yeah, I'm happy to include one or two calls. In fact, I have adjusted the layout of the board making more room for stuff like that quite nicely. I'd be inclined to wait for some calls to be made before uploading the new version though. It'll have got halfway round the internet before I manage to get the calls on, then I'm pointlessly putting another soundboard into circulation with a minor alteration. In which case someone will have to make some calls using the old one. I'm thinking... N00N00 or Jerky? :D I could have a go as well, but I'm not very well versed in pranking, plus I'm a bit of a pussy lol

If you guys can't I'll have to make an effort so I can get the board back up ASAP. Comparing the one I upped to the new improved work in progress I have now concerns me coz I don't want the old one on all the sites - that would be just wrong.

Get back to me about the calls, guys.

Well, to let everyone out there on internet land know which version is the newest, especially web administrators, you could simply put a version number on the soundboard. For example, the first one you posted could be Joe Pesci Soundboard v. 1.0, the next one you posted could be v.1.1 and so on and so forth with every new change.

Unfortunately they haven't been calling so much recently :mad:

Still, I have it set as my default soundboard ready for when they do eventually call. Not sure a soundboard really needs calls on it TBH as it will increase the fiel size quite a bit. Maybe better to just add a link to the calls (if they get done in time) instead?

Citronic27

10-24-2006, 08:14 PM

Yeah, I did feel the same way and you still raise a valid point. I was thinking of perhaps just taking extracts of some calls and putting them on. That way there would still be the extra dimension to the board as Jerky said without bumping up the fize of the file too much. It's just a shame there won't be any useable stuff out there now - even if the call recording was fine the sound clips would still suck ass, coz all of them do on the other JP boards :(

I'll see what happens.

Also, maybe ask people to send the calls they made with the soundboard to your email or create a special email where they can send the calls to. This way, you can compile the calls and post them up.

Citronic27

10-28-2006, 08:31 PM

I think I've decided to leave the calls out tbh. I am not overly keen on them being on the GWB board really, but I suppose a part of that has to do with the fact that there's an extra line of buttons at the bottom of the board just below them, making it look messy and unfinished.

Soundboards and the prank calls made with s/boards have been around for long enough that anyone interested in making calls will have a good understanding of how to use them. All these sites that host the soundboards also usually have a prank calls section nearby in any case, so anyone looking for inspiration will easily find it. I want to up the JP board this w/end completely happy with it and with that in mind I can't really see the justification for creating a second version a bit down the line just to include a few sample calls or something. Plus, with only very minor changes made I doubt the websites that will be hosting my board by this point will be interested enough to change it anyway, so it'd probably be a bit pointless.
