You´re welcome. You really earn every compliment about that site, and no ass licking here, mate.
I´ve searched every possible site ´bout Winter War and yours seem to cover it all.

Weasel,
Thanks, I'm doing my best... unfortunately my wife doesn't agree on my use of free time to this 'hobby', but I can't stop know, while the site is unfinished!!!
And that means it'll go forever as the site has already grown from the original plan of 5+ pages "just testing this HTML-editor" to a neverending project that only grows and grows...
BTW, would you mind editing your original post so that the link would direct visitors to the index page
www.winterwar.com
so that I can keep some track of the number of visitors?
Regards,
Sami

I corrected that original URL as you wished. Keep on good work, and don´t let your wife boss you around about that matter.

You can get an English NTSC version of Talvisota through Amazon.com. For a PAL version, you might wish to check Amazon.co.uk or even Amazon.de.

Tech-stuff coming through
PAL is the European color TV broadcasting standard that most of European countries use, including Scandinavia (Finland, Sweden)
NTSC is what USA and Japan use as their TV standard (including some other countries)
Technically however, it is not as good as PAL. But you have no choice if you order movies from these countries - like I do.
If you dont have VHS-VCR that can play NTSC VHS-tapes, PAL is your only choice. You need NTSC compatible TV also - but most televisions that are sold here in Europe, like Sony, are multi-standard - and these can display NTSC.
I hope that was not too complex
