Screen Resolution: This site is best viewed at 1024 x 768 screen resolution. However, it has been designed to look great on 800 x 600 as well. Users of AOL's browser on 800 x 600 may have to do some scrolling. Browser Compatibility: The site has been designed to work in Netscape, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox. Other browsers have not been tested. If you notice that something is not working properly, please shoot an email to your friendly webmaster with a description of the problem. Load Time: Due to the graphic-heavy nature of this website, users on dial-up internet connections will likely experience some waiting before each section of the site loads. This especially applies to the hi-resolution pop-up images within the discographies and image gallery sections. However, all streaming audio has been designed for a 56k dial-up audience, so loading and playing the audio clips should be relatively pain-free for all users. Getting Around: The following is a brief overview of each section of the site. The Band Currently home to the Tears For Fears FAQ. Coming eventually will be a multimedia Historical Timeline of the band as well as a Touring Lineups page. The Discographies Interactive discographies and videographies for Tears For Fears, Curt Smith, Roland Orzabal, and Graduate. Confused about how to see and hear the interactive content within? This page should explain it for you. The discographies are constantly being updated as new items turn up. Coming soon will be additions to the compilations section detailing more of the recent hits and remix compilations released by Universal, additional information pages for some of the more unique items in the TFF catalog, and scans of dozens of acetates and testpressings. "What the hell is an acetate" you ask? Clicky! The Songs Full lyrics and assorted tidbits of information for every officially released TFF, Graduate, and solo song. Information for each song includes the track time, writing credits, the vocalist, the release the song was originally found on, other releases containing the song, and other versions of the song, as well as some quotes from Roland & Curt and commentaries by yours truly. The lyrics are mostly accurate, but some are incomplete or misheard. If you can help make corrections or additions, please don't hesitate to inform me. Please note that the information pages open in pop-up windows. If you have pop-up blocking software enabled, you may have to disable it or set its preferences to allow pop-ups from memoriesfade.com. Audio Listen to full clips of rare songs, live concerts, and interviews. All clips are in RealAudio® format and require installation of the RealPlayer. If you do not have this software, you can download a free copy at the Real website. Please note that memoriesfade.com does not feature clips of songs that are still available for purchase on the market. If you would like to buy Tears For Fears or related albums that are still in circulation, Amazon.com has an outstanding selection. Also note that memoriesfade.com is not in the business of distributing mp3 or other downloadable music files. Please do not ask, as I do not have any available. Video Full streaming clips for a selection of rare Tears For Fears & related promo videos. Coming soon will be clips from TV appearances and live shows. All clips are in RealVideo® format. For further information on TFF promo videos, visit the video section of the Discographies. Please note that all video streams have been designed for a high-speed broadband audience. From personal experience, it is almost painful to watch streaming video designed for a 56k dial-up connection. I tried to maintain video quality as best I could, and this was the compromise I had to make. Image Gallery Scans of every unique picture sleeve Tears For Fears and related have released. This is quite obviously an impossible task, but we're getting there. Coming eventually will be an extensive photo gallery featuring new and rare promotional and live photos of the band. The picture sleeves section will also be constantly updated as new items are discovered. For even more images of records, compact discs, and similar picture sleeves, visit the Discographies. Newsprint For the moment, select reviews of Tears For Fears albums, singles, and live performances from published music critics. This site will eventually be home to a massive collection of full text articles, interviews, and reviews spanning TFF's 20+ year career. Also In Development Plans are also in the works for a few other specialty sections here at memoriesfade.com. These include:   ·gigography of all live shows   ·collector's corner   ·polling booth So stay tuned! Site Credits: I'd like to express my eternal thanks to everyone who helped make this site happen.
