Upload Forums

This is the place within YC where you can show off your compositions! No matter what kind of piece you may write, YC has a category for it!

Please only upload your own work. Do not post advertisement links to artists who are not a part of YC.

How To Submit Works

Once you have chosen and entered the forum you wish to upload your piece to, click the "New Thread" button located to the top left. Give the thread a title (the name of the piece is best). In the large text box write a description of the piece and give any links you may have to mp3s, scores or video. If you have a file you would like to upload (gif, .jpeg, .jpg, .mid, .midi, .mus, .nwc, .pdf, .png, .rtf, .sib, .txt, .xml) scroll down and click "Manage Attachments", "Browse" (select the file), then "Upload". Once you have everything added, you may click "Preview Post" to check and make sure everything looks how you would like it, or "Submit New Thread" to go ahead and post.

Upload Forums Descriptions

Please read the description of the forums before posting.
