Click on his face. In about ten minutes, an orb of images will load. Some of those images are pictures. Some are videos. Click on a video, and in another ten minutes, it might load. Or it might not. Even if it does, it won't play right. Enjoy! Ah thanks. I assumed they were ALL static images. D'oh. Not a big fan of the mystery navigation. "I Was FINE Back in the Day!" | |

I'm absolutely loving Lotusflow3r, up to track 5 and no problems and no duffers so far, best I've heard in a long time from Prince. RIP | |

how did people (here on the Org, which is where I read to do it) know to put in "1986" and "Los Angeles" into the fields on the ticket? If someone who doesn't come to the Org goes to lotusflow3r to join up, how are they supposed to know what year/city to put in? year is in the video/tv thing and shows are in LA. that guy in the radio says it. just tried and turned out to work. | |

I figured out Los Angeles because I follow Prince enough to know where he's at. I really have no idea where 1986 came from. 2009 was my only guess, I had to come on this thread to get the year to use. | |

It's a zip file, my download is showing as download_gp.php.zip. mine doesn't show the ".zip" part, but we'll see what happens. hopefully there's music in there | |

Why would Prince pick "everytime" to be the first single from Bria's cd?! This is one of the more weaker tracks on the cd. It is what it is | |

Mines at 350mb but the speed seems to be dropping as everyone else gets logged on . Be nice if they told us how big the files were, not an issue for me, would just like to know first. RIP | |

OK, this is lame. I can't navigate between the songs. I can't go directly to "Feel Good, Feel Better, Feel Wonderful".
I can't download the albums I guess I paid $77 for. There is nothing under the LOOK tab. Where are the concert videos? So far, this is not what I expected. I'll be patient and try again tomorrow, but it sure better deliver more than this. | |

Well, the site is nice but quirky!!!!
I figured out how to get Brais album and Lotusflow3r...still have not attempted the other album yet... BUT oh my gawd, Dance 4 me is SMOKIN!!! And I still cannot download the damn things! Keep getting errors! -you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude! | |

This is what happens when graphic designers think they can make websites. When you set out to make a great website, start by looking at the best WEBSITES that are out there, not the best DVD menu screens.
Leaving aside the numerous technical faults which we have to assume will get resolved in time, the site is still a bit of a mess isn't it? I'm sure it is perfectly usable running locally on the designer's Mac, but as a live internet site... yikes. The loading times are frequently measured in minutes, not seconds. It's all so stuttery, with such rotten framerates, even on quite a well specced computer. The layout is so messy, it's an unholy blend of all the very worst of Prince's interactive efforts - Interactive, The Dawn, NPG Music Club etc. It suffers heavily from "mystery meat navigation" too - what will clicking on the pyramid get me, or clicking on the building? Is that thing clickable? The sad thing is, someone charged Prince a lot of money to make this site, a site which literally no one will enjoy using. We'll put up with it to get to the music or concert tickets, but it is a horrible site to actually navigate. | |

Everybody make sure and read the Terms & Conditions so that there won't be any pissing and moaning about refunds/replaced tracks/content availability, etc..
btw...regarding being able to re-download tracks, I've found that with my Amazon mp3 downloads, I can't download them again either without repurchasing. I haven't ever bought mp3s from other sites, so I don't know if that is now a 'standard' or what. | |
