It will be great!
So... this thing is just starting to kick off, then? Sort of like LinkedIn for MA guys/gals?
yes it is some sort of LinkedIn specially for martial artists that are interested in acting in movies.Quote:

There are a few of these out there tailored to specific groups. It's how like minded peeps get together to share info and make friends.
Where do I post my background/experience?
what are these 'friends' things you speak of?Quote:

This system has been made because there are Movie Casting websites, but there is no Casting site that focuses on Martial artist.
So the concept in this case is a very good one.
There are also different kind of accounts that people can register.
people can register as Actor
people can register as Producer/Director
people can register as Figurant
people can register as Bit Player
(So this is not really an social network with the same goal as facebook, but the main goal is creating opportunities for actors to meet producers etc..)
I actually support what you're trying to do. However, remember martialartscasting.com and www.martialartstalent.com? Both of those got some early buzz and both are down now. How will your model differ from those previous ones?
BTW, iMartial is actually still going. It was built mostly as a tournament registration site and still functions in that capacity within the sport karate circles. It just never had that much crossover to the CMA here, despite our efforts.

4. or they somehow lost all data and did not wat to continue
I am sure, that the above things won't happen with me.
1. I have allot motivation, because I also want to be a actor
2. I have a job, so I can pay the server costs.
3. I have good knowledge about hosting etc.. and I do know that there will be a time that I have to upgrade to a Virtual Private Server in order to keep the website fast.
4. I make backups :)
I will also personally contact some producers and directors soon so they also know that this system exists.
were those websites using the same kind of system as KungfuCasting?
