v2.0 of our merged implementation

Notice the pause button by each upload progress bar, the clear approve/delete buttons for the album (and the removal of the trash bin icon previously in the top right corner), and the re-wording on the upper left tabs for clarity. Changes not seen include a screen hover on dragging files over the interface (an entire gray-out screen blankets the screen and says "upload"), a highlight on hovering over any editable fields (including the tracks, which then allow editing of artists on individual tracks), and other minor changes. Other forthcoming changes include being able to delete single tracks (also using a hover over track affordance) and a clear visual cue that uploading albums can be clicked on to see specific album information.

v2.0 of reporting interface

Note that there were several transparencies made for both versions of the reporting interface to reflect changes in filtering and when clicking on one of the playback count headers (which sorts by play count in descending order).
