Hello!

If there are any Polish folks amongst you, I inform you there's a Polish Cocteau twins website www.cocteautwins.prv.pl (http://iceblink.republika.pl/)

Hi Adam! I'm not polish, but I went to check out your site. I couldn't navigate through it. I would click on each link, and it seemed to have loaded something, but the window would not display anything past the first page. I'm using a Mac, and don't know if that makes any difference (it might), but I at least wanted to let you know. I'm also using IE 5.0, if that helps you to find the problem. Tell me when you think you have that fixed, and I'll go back.

Very cool, by the way, to create a polish site! We can't just expect our polish friends to all speak english, right? ;) Nice to know you are creating a Cocteau Twins home just for them. Good luck!

Then I take it you were able to navigate it then, mmmender? Oh, woe is me! The poor, lonely Macintosh user who sometimes misses out on web offerings. :(

:rolleyes:




even so, they'll take my Mac from my cold, dead fingers!!! ;)

But I don't have any problems being a Mac user on your site, dearie! Although I can't post any pictures anymore. I will say this, though... I don't get the Milk and Kisses image in my text window (it peeps through the little option windows above it, though:confused: ), and I noticed that the signatures that people use can look different from a PC. Those are just little, teeny, tiny, itsy, bitsy things, though. Not being able to get past someone's home page is a bit more problematic. ;)

I'm sorry, Lucibelle, I have no idea why you're not able to navigate! Seems you're the first person who has a problem with it.

Give it another chance, you have to click on the logo (Leesa posted it above) then menu will be loaded...

"We can't just expect our polish friends to all speak english, right?"
We can't, but that's not the point. I did not want to create just another English website (can I say anything new about CT?).
My Polish page is specific, cos' it's full of our local CT connections, releases, topics etc... BTW I haven't seen many "local" CT websites except one French (http://forjm.free.fr/), one Japanese (http://pws.prserv.net/spanglemaker/music/cocteau/index.htm) and few Brazilian...

AND LEESA, thank you for appreciation of my efforts :-)

How do I feel
About myself?
I try
I am resourceful

I belong when I contribute
I don't have to
Be perfect
I'm accepting myself as I really am
I'm feeling love for my successes
Thank you for showing me respect

God! I LOVE that song, mmmender! I don't have it anymore, though.:( Could anyone send me an MP3? groundwork@mpinet.net pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease?:D

I have to run out right now, Adam, but I'll try your site once I get back. I DID get to the main menu, however (sorry, wasn't quite specific enough), and it was from there that I couldn't get any further. It could be because I'm on a Mac, though. It wouldn't be the first time that it was a reason a site wouldn't work well for me. There is a PC in the house, though. If I can't get to you on my computer, I'll try from the PC and let you know if that's what it is. I did love what I saw, though! I don't know why I didn't just hook up the other computer before.:rolleyes:

So I'll be back. Have fun! Oh, and PLEASE someone send me that MP3!

As you probably know Fruitopia is not the title of these two short songs, but it is the name of Coca-Cola drink. This picture is not record sleeve, but bottle label...

I think it's problem with frames... Sorry, Mac users, I can't solve this problem. Oh, and thank you, Mr. Bill Gates.

Hey, Bill Gates rocks. I have harbored a secret crush on him for years. The man's brilliant-excluding some Windows glitches that are still being worked out (years later). Screw the government if they can't stand competition. That's why they LOST. Why don't they sue the U.S. Post Office for monopolizing? Mr. Gates wasn't trying to eliminate anyone's business, he was a SMART and EFFECTIVE businessman, making decisions for his company. Bless Bill Gates, I love him. And I am sick of these Mac comercials, has anyone HEARD these? Cripes, are they just stupid "ooooh, I saved Christmas"..... WHO can't maneuver through freakin Windows???? Touchy subject....

No flaming damnit!

P.S. Faaaabulous site there Adam!
