Just sittin' here lookin' around the site....wonderin' if there is someway maybe to do away with some of the pix, camo, etc., for us poor hicks that live too far out in the boonies to get DSL or such!!! The site takes 'bout 5 minutes to load on our dial-up, and then every other thing takes 'bout another five each time we go to another thread!!! Ain't bitchin'!, just food for thought!!! Ultimag

You can go into your profile, then modify profile, and turn off signatures, avatars, and images.
Doing this helped me to get pages to load faster before I got a new PC.

Huntress hit the nail on the head! That's one good way to speed it up. I know that this site is a nightmare on dial up and with that in mind I'm currently working on a "dial up friendly" secondary skin for the site. It may not be as great as the default site your looking at right now but hey... it'll get the job done! You'll be able to access this option through your preferences when you go into the "modify profile" section of the site. I'll give more details once that project is complete. I'm so busy with everything my head is spinning but will definitely have this as one of the "to do's". Hang in there... it's worth the wait!

I have dial-up through Sprint. Plus I got Rev-The-Web through my internet provider for an extra 3.00 a month. It's alot faster now.

Careful, though. Some sites need the "cookies enabled" to access or gain full benefit from that site.

ya'll dont have it as bad as I do, try Century Tel, I think a squirrel & cage is still the main source of power if ya'll know what I mean. We signed up for there accelator doent work have the time and when it does , its only good for a few minutes. For me to up load Racks & Spurs (no lie) 23 minutes(I timed it) and it takes me 5 minutes between each post. I have it bad. And they said they aint puttin DSL out in our neck of the woods cause of the population 462.

I also suffer from the dial-up syndrome at home. Doesn't take 23 minutes to load R&S, but bad enough that I mainly check in from the high speed connection at work.
