A few questions about the nusach was created by Litvak
1) Singing Lidovid boruch and laminatzeach bineginos before arvis of motzaei Shabbos - I assume that you sing it from your seat (as opposed to omud or bimah) and the whole tzibbur joins in ? Correct ? 2) I have seen in siddurim that they have printed there other - about fifteen - shir hamaalos as well, after mincha on Shabbos. Do you sing or say those other/additional shir hamaalos as well ? 3) What about 'Borchi nafshi' during the winter ? Do you say it ? Sing it ? 4)The saying of yotzeros for the arba parshios will be inyona diyoma soon. Do you have any special minhogim/nusach for them ? 5) When do you say shir hayichud? Special nusach for it ? The mizmorim said before and after maariv bizmano - where does that minhag come from ?

I vote for having both tekios and pesukei dezimra online. I would let you decide which to do first. If it's a choice between just those two I would guess that pesukei dezimra should have kedimah, as it is todir and inyona diyoma always !

Thanks and keep up the great work.

1) Yes, they are sung from the seat by all of the tzibbur. Only for Vehoo Rachum the Chazzan goes to the Omud.
2-3) We say all of the 15 Shir hama'alos and Borchi Nafshi in the winter, no special melody to them, just the end is said out loud in the regular melody for Mincho of Shabbos.
4) We do have special niggunim for the Yotzeros, and especially for the Yotzeros in Musaf, and I believe part of it will be up soon.
5) Shir hayichud is said after Oleinu (we say it on Shabbos and Yom tov only). It's said in the "Shir Hayichud Niggun" which is the niggun Tehillim are usually said to.
