I have a small favor to ask. I know so many people are on this site that a few people can help me out. I added background music to 3 pages of Sujeet and I's website. I am not sure if it will cause ppl's computer long to load our webpages because of the background music, if so then I would just take them off. People visit the site from time to time and I don't want to have an annoying website that takes forever to load. So if a few of you, who are able to listen to music (probably not at work) would click my site, then see if the first page's music plays after a few seconds or if it takes a long time.

The pages to try are : Home, More about us, and Pics in India.

I put an American song on "home" , a mixed american/Indian song on "more about us", and then a real Indian song on "pics in India".

Thanks...if even a few of you can let me know if the songs load for them or not. They are loading fast for me, but since I did this on my computer that might be why.

I REALLY prefer websites that do NOT have background music on them... I don't think it adds anything to the viewing experience... sound clips take a long time to download, and they don't encourage people to spend long at the site (hearing a song once is fine but it keeps cycling through as long as you stay on the screen and it gets boring/irritating very quickly) When I hear music loading I either leave the site quickly, or turn the sound off on the computer.

All the pages (with or without music) take a few seconds to load, but there doesn't really seem to be any problem with the music, as far as I can see. Nice site, and cool music :P

(not just to be curmudgeonly... I like to listen to my CD player while I'm at the computer and website music interferes so I have to get up and turn it off...)

thanks :star:

I love music a lot and that's why I wanted to be able to put some of our personality into the site with music. I had tried in the past but it was for premium members only. Even though I still have the free service, suddenly now I am able to put songs on the pages.

I also get annoyed if I go to a site that has music but only if there is no way to turn it off. What I thought was better about this was that the on/off button is obvious at the bottom of the page and I also put a note saying where to turn off the music.

We use the same service for our website & blog (but we pay for no advertising and extra features), so I know the music loads well. We use it on one of our pages. They've added a whole lot of new templates...like the animal ones. :yes:
