4 the lotusflow3r website designers get in thread now and read this.

Many of us have been trying to get in the website with our original sign up/membership details and the website is refusing this and it’s frustrating. Sort it out before we all blow a fuse mad

Yes, agreed, an answer would be appreciated! I signed in using the name and email address that I used to sign up to get emails, but it won't let me in. Every time I chose a new username and password, I get a message saying it is already in use. Can someone please straighten this out please, before we all go crazy? lol
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

The username and password you used to sign up for updates is no good. Once you got the 1986 LA thing you then have a page where you have to choose a new username and password.

I do not know where these "designers" came from, but this launch was a joke!

The whole issue with the dynamite and syncing your computer clock with the Internet and CA time was just stupid.

The issues with IE and user names/passwords was beyond amateur. How hard is it to place a notice on the site stating that you need Mozilla for the site to work?

It is slow to load and navigate, which tells me the servers cannot handle the traffic.

For all this hype and fanfare, I would not hold my head up high if I was Prince or these designers. This was goofy at the least and a major embarrassment.

Finally, what is with taking the fans through all of this secret to unlock the site and senseless navigation - click here, click there crap? Didn't he do that mess with the NPGMC when it first launched? Folks are too old to be playing around with that kind of stupidity. The casual fan will not be bothered with it, which makes it even more ridiculous to me, because it is designed to toy with and irritate the "tru" fans.

I think they are waiting for people to be wowed by this site and ooh and ah about how "cool" it is, but it's juvenile to me.
perfection is a fallacy of the imagination...

When you click on "Download Album" it gives you that message? Does a separate tab open up before or no?
Change it one more time..

I don't agree. I loved the bomb and thought it was a good idea. I didn't see it explode like others so yes it had it's glitch from the start. Logging on the site was a bit of a hassle but once I got through I was satisfied and content. You may not ooh and ah what these designers have put together but I can appreciate their artistry and hard work. They were web designers that had a few months to put together something that would please us fussy Prince fans and I think between the graphics and the music most of us got our moneys worth.

hate to disagree, but being able to easily find the thing you paid for would be improvement.

and then after you've found it, getting it to work without putting in 5 hours to do it would vastly improve the experience.


just sayin' lol

Thank you Flowers7!!!

Finally got in with 1986 and LA...did NOT have to spell out Los Angles

Choose a name, my old name worked and I selected a NEW password.

I was able to access the membership sign up page. Good luck to all still trying to get in! peace


hug DigMeNow
hug flowers7

Because flowers7 was kind enough to explain to us how to register, DigMeNow was also able to help me register on lotusflow3r. Thanks for helping me choose a password, Dig. I'm surprised I didn't think of the password that you came up. It's so obvious. lol

lets see what happens when the kinks are worked out. It would be great not to have to log back in, To go into other areas of the site. and the site is not secure while accepting payments.


anyone having problems with the video quality being choppy?

nod I and others have been having issues with the videos as well. I think it probably is because of all of the traffic on the server.

Glad I waited. Hopefully after a few weeks they'll sort out the glitches. I guess the server will be less busy too.

How do I just buy the albums without signing up for the $77 membership? Or is it not possible yet?

I didn't even get to the CC transaction page. The very first registration page into which you must put all your personal details is not a secure page either.


Well, lotusflow3r designers, if you're reading this - please sort that out as soon as you can, I don't know about anyone else, but I do not put all my personal details into unsecured pages, and certainly not credit card details.

(Setting up secure pages for registrations and CC transactions is easy. I'm a developer, if you like I can show you how. smile boxed )
Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP.
