Hello Lukas! Thanks a lot for signing in!

Dear Lukas,

I like your poster proposal. As I already said in the Forum, nothing should be done without permission, as this will not work. But as no community wants to introduce or present itself as racist, I think we will have this permission.

See the Forum discussion for newest ideas. It is very easy to comment. Just click on Reply and you will have space there.

Good luck, talk to you soon again, Els

Hello Lukas,

Sorry for the delay, but I have been rather busy with the possible board and really making progress there. I was very happy with your offer and made you an administrator now. Tonight I will send you some of the updates I received. Ning is not complicated and I learn more and more, but some help would be great. Take care now, for being administrator you can make disappear whole pages with just one click. What I ask from you won't take much time. There are just a few updates that make it easier for people to join. That is the most urgent thing to be done. Thanks again. Tonight I will pass you the info. Els

Dear Lukas,

Thanks for letting in Alain! If you see a person called Pooya, then keep the door closed. He is a troublemaker, constantly talking about the need of an army and insulting other people.

I saw youy were online but just missed you. If you are here again, then go to my network, then to sign up/sign in. You will see Googlemail, Yahoo and Facebook. After Facebook it says (update App details). When you click there, you will see URL, Key etc. But when you want to save them, you have to check on Facebook and get the message that the App details on Facebook are different from those on the site. They are the same, but maybe I tried too often and therefore it does not work. I cannot explain, you have to see for yourself. The help desk of Ning (support) is clear, but the Facebook FAQ is rather complicated. Thanks a lot and enjoy the weekend! Els

Dear Lukas, I am happy two more musicians joined! Now about your idea: I think it is very interesting, only what kind of news do you mean? I am a subscriber to the Roma Vitual Network that is doing an excellent job, but see how much events there are. What will be our criteria? We cannot publish everything. A suggestion: as we recently decided to focus on children, including youngsters, we might report about them. How are they doing in modern Europe? Perhaps it is good to have a comment from young Roma, each time from a different country, only this derives a lot of organization. In the past I made intereviews with children and adults were fond of this page. What do you think? I agree that it could be much more dynamic. I would like to make cartoons, but I have a constant lack of time, especially now I am dealing with these board issues. By the way, Maccus, photographer from the Netherlands, also offered website help. When both of us are absent, it is good that someone can take over, so I will keep his offer in mind. Tell me about your ideas for the news; it could ne on the Main Page, new Tab. Best wishes, Els

Great job! Thanks a lot! For this moment there is nothing else. I am waiting replies from people, but there are very interesting discussions going on, about future possibilities for and with the Initiative.

No idea why people still face signing up problems. T thought that the Ning system made it a bit easier now.

Best wishes, Els

 

Hello Lukas,

Did you receive today (14 February) the declaration and other text? Let's confer a bit about where to post it on the Main page. There are less than 2 weeks to go for the application and the texts might help a lot!

Thanks, Els

Hi Lukas,

We can need some space. There are indeed many tabs. Is it possible to put "Start of the Initiative", "Q&A" and "ARTillery" under 1 tab: about the Initive?

There are 2 more tabs (invible, you have to ask for them to see them): "Artists' websites" and "Artists e-mail adresses" I should like to delete. The e-maile addresses are partly unvalid and the website addresses (useful in presentations) should be updated. I spent a lot of time doing this, but it is simple becoming too much with the number of members joining.

What might useful however, is a file I update here and want to forward to you: all members are there, with wensites and e-mail addresses, listed per country. I still have to do a new update, but I use this list frequently.

What about combining 3 tabs for the Initiatve info?

Best wishes,

Els

(I will soon address Rajan Zed and more, to have them under "Honorary Members"; shall I ask for a small profile as well?)

Hello Lukas, 

Thank you for your kind welcome and hope to make many friends. 

Thank you again. 

Kind regards

 

Hi Lukás, I just wanted to say thank you for the new main page - it is much more clear now and one gets a good overview more easily. Viola
