FTP Server & File Sharing

Purdue Trumpets,

We have an all new and easy-to-use system for sharing photos, videos, and other electronic files within the section, with alumni, and with prospective members. All the details about and instructions for using this new FTP (File Transfer Protocol) system have been posted to the MEMBERS ONLY page of PurdueTrumpets.com. If you do not have the current username and password, please do not hesitate to email the webmaster at webmaster@purduetrumpets.com.

By using this new system we hope to facilitate the sharing of great full-resolution (not poor quality Facebook ones) photos and videos of the Purdue Trumpet Section among members and alumni. Your contributions will also aid in developing PurdueTrumpets.com to be one of the best section websites out there. Upload your material today and become the face of Purdue Trumpets online!

If you have any restrictions on how material being uploaded is used, for example, "to be shared with Purdue Trumpets only" or "general public", simply denote this in the folder titles you upload or email the webmaster.

Thank you in advance for your continued dedication, support and contributions to the Purdue Trumpet Section and PurdueTrumpets.com!

Summer Vacation!

Has anybody gone anywhere exciting for vacation this summer? I'm currently on vacation until next Saturday with my parents and brother, Brian, at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. We determined that this is apparently our 18th time coming here for vacation. :-D

So... where have you gone this summer?

Welcome!

Welcome to the Purdue Trumpet blog.

Only authors can make posts and comments. If you are a member of the trumpet section or you are interested in becoming a future member of the trumpet section and you are not an author, contact Eric so he can invite you.

Keep in mind that since the blog is now public, anybody can read it. Be considerate of the privacy of others and don't post any information that you wouldn't want anybody else to read. Content will be monitored by the blog administrators and removed if need be.

Rules of the Blog

You are now a member of the trumpet blog, and you have every right to post on here.

If you are responding to someone else's post or idea, please use the comments rather than posting a new entry. This will help keep the blog easier to read.

Your posts can be band related, social, funny, sad or pretty much anything else you want, within reason. Go ahead and test the boundaries if you want. We probably wont get mad, but you might offend some people, so don't be a jerk.

Please keep bad language to a minimum, however...
insults directed toward other section members in a harsh way, or in a way that could be taken as "not a joke" will not be tolerated. Please be careful.
