Just to let you know, I took up the challenge and completed it. It's right here (http://www.ninsheetm.us/smf/index.php?topic=3069.0) along with my other arrangements so far.

Maybe convert it to MusicXML, link us and I'll see how it works? It probably won't be perfect, but you never know.

Finale PrintMusic is only $119 last I checked (not nearly as much as Finale Full) and that offers more than the functionality you'd ever need for piano arrangements for the site. The instrument limit might stop some orchestral arrangements but it's not too restrictive if you ask me. Having Finale full is mainly for bragging rights, methinks.

Just one small question that doesn't really change my bias, but can it change clefs?

Just double checking that you know that I've already done the Desert theme. 

They sounds all fine but in Toy Time Galaxy in measure 13 and 17 the bass is different like the rest of the 3 measures before it. Since that finale can open midi files . And do you have Mus files of those or missed I something in another topic I didn't read?

I also forgot to mention that I don't have any .mus formats for any of them except Toy Time. (which I can't edit now because my trial ran dry)

[AND]

They all sound good, but inherently no .mus was always going to be a problem. It won't be submitted to the site without it, and even if someone/s were nice enough to convert ALL those and others you're bound to make in the future, it really wouldn't be fair to them.

If you use something like Sibelius or MuseScore you might be able to convert it into MusicXML format, which would be easier to import. Converting from MIDI to MUS is really messy and only gives us notes. Rarely do key sigs, time changes, grace notes and any form of formatting, articulation or dynamics translate properly if at all.

Hope you work this out.

Thanks for this feedback. Now that I think about it, you've got a big point, and it wouldn't be fair to everyone else to convert my files. If I get the chance I'll get a finale product. (I'd better start saving  ) What's really fortunate is that the program I use can export Midis AND MusicXMLs. MusicXMLs never crossed my mind because I always found them pretty messy, but if that works best I have no problems whatsoever.
(Just to let you know if you read this again, I had no idea what I was talking about because my program can't read XMLs)

I'm not exactly sure what you mean with measures 13 and 17, so maybe you could explain it a different way?

I know none of these are .mus but I don't have anything Finale (Notation Composer instead {http://www.notation.com/NotationComposer.php}).

Deku:
Can you post PDFs?
Also, I didn't end up doing the last update, Nakah did.

JDMEK5:
I can convert any that I have to PDFs but I think I remember seeing somewhere that you had to zip them?...
Would that mean to just stick them in a compressed (zipped) folder before uploading to mediafire and so on?

Deku:
Disregard the zip thingy; that's for people who are converting songs that are already on the site to PDF.

JDMEK5:
All right then. As you can see I've updated all of the above to show midi, xml, and pdf.
I also exchanged the Boss Race from Diddy Kong Racing for Walking The Plains from New Super Mario Bros. for two reasons.
Number 1, Walking The Plains was a fulfilled request,
and number 2, the Boss Race was just too hard. I'll send it back once I simplify it a little... (ok, a lot)

Deku:

Walking the Plains: The left hand sounds a little weird. I think you'd be better off putting the bass guitar part for most of it (6 onwards). Also, not all the notes have harmonies beneath them.

Battle: 23-30, the left hand needs some fixin' up. And some other small places, but they aren't much of an issue.

Desert: The bass changes a fair bit (note-wise) more in the original than in the sheet, so that needs adjusting. And I think a couple of the right hand notes may be a bit off.

I'll do your Desert one. Just give me some time and I'll try to make it as accurate and playable as possible. It'll come in midi. Let the dudes up there know I'm doing this one.

Somebody should do the red star (flying mario) theme from galaxy (1). I have a little tiny piece of a small part that I can give to anyone willing to take on the challenge. It would be an midi, and I need it back in midi.

I don't know if trios are allowed and if they're not, pay no attention to that last one. It isn't formatted very well either.
Reminder: I'm the one with the special permission to exclude .mus subscriptions.

OK.

Thanks guys. I'll post some midi, MusicXML, and PDFs around the Super Mario and Pokemon sections, including a few from Diddy Kong Racing, so look there for songs to convert for me. Just another question, could I submit Trios (three pianos)?

OK, thanx. By the way, could I just keep sending midi and pdf files? And then that way, if enough people want it in .mus someone could download it and change it? I've already bought a different music program and right now I'm not sure if I could get finale. (I can't do anything else in finale because my trial has already run dry)    

I need a clef change in an arrangement I'm making but my version of Finale can't do it. What should I do?
The song I'm working on is Toy Time Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy.
I was also wondering if I could still submit songs to the site with Notation Composer (http://notationcomposer.com/index.php) as I am only using the trial version of Finale right now.
Please reply.
