1. try and put some detail in the title of your thread ie genre and the year you think the track/s are from
(if i can see the year in a thread i know instantly if il have a chance of ID'ing or not)

2.make samples if possible, and make them about a minute long, if you reduce the quality of an mp3 to 64kbps you will get about 2 mins of track time for about 1mb of file space
(personally i wont bother with large files from the likes of yousendit or megaupload etc)

3.use WWW.TUNEID.COM's own file upload facility because no one likes to open a whole new page to hear each of your samples

4.limit the ammount of ID request on a single forum post to 10 or less (i think it gets messy after 6)

5.if you have multiple ID's in a forum post edit the original post when someone ID's a track so others can easily see whats left to be ID'd


happy hunting :)

ps if theres somthing else you think would make the task of ID'ing easier let me know
