11 Nov 11 - 01:14 PM (#3255080) Subject: RE: Review: Early Music Project From: Jack Campin You are amazingly paranoid about people deep-linking to your images - most of them seem to only be thumbnails anyway, so I don't see why anybody would bother. I liked the minimally accompanied singing. Didn't go for the recorder playing. |
11 Nov 11 - 01:40 PM (#3255094) Subject: RE: Review: Early Music Project From: Mick Pearce (MCP) I gave up on the site when the link to the image of the gothic harp gave me a half-page piss-off message. I wouldn't go back. Mick |
11 Nov 11 - 02:31 PM (#3255131) Subject: RE: Review: Early Music Project From: Don Firth I liked the music in general (I've developed a real interest in Early Music of late), what I could hear of it. On the facebook page, I got a "The web page cannot be found" message, and the NUTHATCH RECORDINGS Downloads page--that's a lovely background, with the harp among all the foliage (very pastoral), but the background makes the text downright unreadable. Interesting project. But you really need to do something about the web site. Don Firth |
11 Nov 11 - 05:26 PM (#3255237) Subject: RE: Review: Early Music Project From: Windsinger Jack, Thanks for the reminder, I've been meaning to take that entire page down anyhow. :) It's true that there was a time when a frustrating proportion of traffic on the site came from image-searches. Some would proceed to steal bandwidth by hotlinking to them, and weren't deterred by watermarking. (I haven't checked the referral logs for such behavior in a bit, but ultimately it's just easier to not put the material out there.) |

Try this one if you like. I did actually consider an opaque background for that text field, let me fiddle with the html a minute. :) |

It must have taken a long time to amass the research and get the project to gel. Applause for you and the concerted effort. I'm sure you'll look back with well-deserved pride on the project. Pleas inform us when the CD is available. The nuthatch is such a wonderful and strange bird. First time in my life I ever saw a bird walk down the side of a tree. Have a few just out front, and they're beautiful to behold. Best wishes to you. BM |
