Welcome to the Slovenia discussion JonB!

The way you did it is just fine. If you want the colors and formatting - which makes my life very easy - you can click "owner edit" for the main post and copy the portions you need. You can't edit the post of course, but you can copy the formatted UBB code and just hit the back key. I will update the Eon entry with your info later tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for your input.

Great stuff, JonB. Thanks for the info. The main post has been updated. I also changed the link for Mat'Kurja to point to the English page by default.

Btw: What does Mat'Kurja mean in English?

[JonB]

Kinda funny - Mat' Kurja is short for Mati Kurja which means Mother(or Mama) Hen or shorter Ma' Hen

Slovenian borders "resemble" Hen.

If you look on the front matkurja page and look at the Hen:

[matkurja.com...]

and then this page

[matkurja.com...]

and look at the actual shape of slovenia you will know what i mean :)

I will update on other SE too-also i am searching for LATEST stats how many people are online have interent,domain in slovenia.

Dobro jutro, Jon. (A bit late in the day perhaps, but just to prove that I clicked your link.) You are right, the country does look like a hen. Making noise in Hungary, laying eggs in Italy. That was a fun site and the country presentation was excellent. Well worth a read.

EVERYBODY: Click here [matkurja.com] and become the first kid on the block to know anything at all about Europe's newest contry. Impress you friends with your vast encyklopedial knowledge. Make a name for yourself as a person who is 'with it'.

Looking forward to hearing more from you, JonB.
