it is taking much more time to load now, and I have cable internet, I can't imagine how slow it must before for those on dial-up, maybe you could speed it up a bit? just a suggestion maybe a second skin choice with not as many graphic for those with slower uploads If it's taking longer to load it probably has more to do with the codes that were added rather than the actual layout. I can see that there were definatly a few codes added onto the forum and they could easily slow it down a bit.

I can see that there were definatly a few codes added onto the forum and they could easily slow it down a bit. The slow problem is due to 3 things: 1 - The skin is new, and it is not in your cache yet. So once you surf more than 5 pages, it gets a bit quicker. 2 - The images - When I made this skin, I tried to make the images sizes as small as possible, so they wouldn't take lots of time to load. Although comparing to the previous skin, this has more images... But, like I said before, once you surf 5 pages or more, the images get cached and then it will be all fast 3 - This is the most important cause: codes. Yes, they did cause some trouble. Although I had no speed problems. I did a little something and made them quicker. Hope it is fast to you all now I agree with Andi on that one^^ Im glad to know its not just mine, I couldnt get on here at all yesterday Well, I know the forum was a bit slow, but not that slow, cos everyone could get in it. Maybe It's your internet connection speed. I suggest you check your computer for viruses infecting your speed. Or contact your Internet provider to ask them why are you getting low speed.

My computer is fairly fast so I haven't had too many problems going through the forum but I do notice a speed difference and can see how it would be slower for other people with slower connections. Every once and a while it will freeze on me. Like when I came on and went to look in my PMs it froze and took a few minutes to finally load. But for the most part it has been alright for me. My guess would be that it has to do mostly with the new codes such as the forum resize, the PM bar code, the new table, etc.

im new to this where is it? This is an old topic. The skin you see is the only one available, it just wasn't always the one used. They were talking about how slow it is, because while its not terrible, it is fairly slow comparitively to most. Personally, I always have found that the number of smilies slow the board down much more than the codes themselves. Reply boxes take forever for me.
