I agree with Kalimuthu, Congrates and a big thanks for the team working on the site. With BSNL broadband connection in Chennai, I find it very slow in downloading the flash intro. of ARR site. Can we access the main manu and contents in 5-10 seconds in a network like ours in Chennai? That will encourage us to visit the site often I have been thinking of writing this even since the ATM demo was uploaded in that site. Cheers K. M. Ameer HYPERLINK "http://dreamspringmelodies.com/"http://dreamspringmelodies.com Posted by: "Kalimuthu" HYPERLINK "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"[EMAIL PROTECTED] com HYPERLINK "http://profiles.yahoo.com/wikikm"wikikm Wed Oct 31, 2007 11:44 pm (PST) Googling A R Rahman yields arrahman.com on the top, beating wikipedia.com, which is great.. BTW, are we going to have the same Flash (welcome screen) forever? I feel Flash diminishes the seriousness of the content we are trying to depict. But we can retain flash for samples; and other contents wherever needed. Secondly, many will not like Second screen being poped up when you click 'Enter Screen'. Shall I request you to reconsider the site design? Prehaps with less animation, more focus on the text part (Like Google / Wikipedia), still, retaining flash for audio contents. Just my opinion.
