Dan & Carol Reply: Julieta, or Julie, has a beautiful site. She has it displayed in both English and Spanish and in a very interesting and neat way! She includes both versions on most every page. She has lots of information and interesting links concerning such things as Canada and other places plus lots of her own writings worthy of anyone's attention! Thanks, Julie, for having such a lovely site and for honoring us with your beautiful award!

Thanks for applying,

Dan & Carol Reply: Slo, aka Steve, has a GREAT WebTV made site! His wife Jan has a lovely one as well and with the award link above you will be dropped off at the entryway to both of their great sites! This couple has plenty to offer with their sites, such as cool sounding midis that are formatted "nicely", and lots of info on many things concerning WebTV. Thanks, Steve, for this too cool of an award, and to Jan for her lovely addition to the WebTV community as well!

Dan & Carol Reply: Rob is a fellow WebTV-er, ADH-HH-er and has a GREAT site full of R & B midis and more! He really put some effort into his site's creation, including the design and research that he had to do to have such a fine collection of music midis and it is one you cannot miss! We thank you, Rob, for the fabulous award and will display it honorably!

"Congratulations, you are a winner of the Internet Brothers Silver Plaque for Helpware Excellence. In reviewing your site we have found it to be of high quality and value. You should be very proud of the work you have done.

*********************Brief Review Here*********************
Oddly enough, in the nearly 1000 sites I have reviewed for the Internet Brothers Helpware Plaque, yours is the first specifically designed for WebTV. It wasn't a very good start as the opening page crashed my IE5 browser. Not your fault, Microsoft obviously has some work to do. So I switched to Netscape 4.6 and at least made it through half a dozen pages before it crashed too.

Not to worry though. Anticipating this eventuality, some time ago I downloaded the WebTV Viewer for Windows98. That's probably how you would want me to look at your site anyway, right? It was worth the extra effort.

I admire your willingness to experiment with "different" technologies, and especially to offer the help and assistance to others that you do. That's what the Internet Brothers award is all about. So count your State of Mind as the first WebTV winner.

**************************************************************

Thank you for your interest...and continued good luck with your web site!"

Sincerely,

Dan & Carol Reply: First, let us say "thanks" for the IBPH Silver Award. We appreciate it very much! We also want to reply to some of your comments and observations while reviewing our site.

We also use IE 5.0 and Netscape 4.61 to check compatibility and have not experienced the disappointing crashing and burning that you did while checking our site. We would have to say that both Geocities and Tripod are going through a lot of turmoil these days and it wouldn't surprise us to find that they are responsible for the trouble that you experienced. Bless you, for using the WebTV Viewer to continue your review. You are the first to admit to taking the time and trouble to see our site the way that other WebTV users and we see it.

How deeply honored we are to have received the first award given to any WebTV site from Jeff. He offers a very prestigious award and we are ever so proud to have received the "silver". His site is beyond excellent in its content and information, and deserves a thorough look by everyone!

Show how proud we all are and submit your outstanding site, WebTV-ers, to some of the more prestigious award giving computers sites and continue to stand proud and prove we are to be recognized as an important part of the Internet community!

"You've created a nice site! The design is good and navigation is quite good as well. I enjoyed visiting your site and checking out your great midi archive! Congratulations, you have been awarded the Bronze FabFour Honors!

Again Congratulations, and keep up the good work!"

Have a great weekend,
Candace

p.s. Cute cats you have!

Dan & Carol Reply: What an "excellent" music site Candace has. It has information on all forms of music including MIDI (a very good selection too!), MP3 (which is mighty fine!), and a directory of her own personal CD collection. Candace likes music and we're glad she does since she did make reference to our great MIDI collection! (hehe!) We want to thank you, Candace, for the prestigious as well as gorgeous award! We are very happy we received it!

"I am pleased to announce that your submission for my "Web Award of Excellence" has been approved. Your site was reviewed for originality, usefulness of information, and graphic design. Your site only enhances the originality of our internet community. Job well done! :o)"
