Ok.... I know that there are a few folks on here that have a dial up internet connection and was interested in finding out if you'd like to have me create a secondary choice for those of you who have dial up so that it makes it easier to view. Now... keep this in mind...
I know that the immediate reaction will probably be "Yes" but some things to consider here...
If I create a second choice of "skins" to choose from or in other words layout and overall appearance of the website that is to be dial up friendly, then it's going to be completely stripped down and lacking in a lot of graphics and coding. In other words, it's not going to be anywhere near as good as the regular site layout in terms of overall feel and looks. Many things will be different.
So with that being said, what do you think...
Sacrifice the load times for the "eye appeal" or stay with it and deal?? Also, if you'd like to see a particual color(s) let me know what your preferances are and I'll go with the majority rule.... IF it's something y'all want. Let me know so I can get working on it if need be. Thanks!

I am gonna say , being I can see this site from both sides of the world.. I have dial up at home,, and I have high speed something or other at work, Leave it like it is, On my dial up it takes a bit longer but I enjoy the colors and the pics and so on.Work has put photobucket on the banned list so I cant see most pics,, but hey I dont have to see the all. Heck its all good.

Now that I have Road Runner high speed internet this site is AWESOME as is. It's the best site I've been to on the net as far as graphics and eye appeal. I say keep it as is.

I have to agree. As much as I loath the load up times from what I was used to with Road Runner, I would much rather have a site that I like to look at. For the color question....BLUE, BLUE, BLUE. My next choice would be BLUE!!!!!

Ok, the members have spoken and the decision is unanymous by a land slide. We had some feedback about it being a bit slow to load on the dial up and I wanted to make sure that you, the members, knew that the concern was heard and addressed. Thanks for the imput guys! And thanks for the saving me all that work lol...phew!

I have dial up at home and some sort of high speed connection at work. Yes it is a little slower here at home, but I can live with it most of the time, unless my connection speed is slow for one reason or the other.
That is one reason though that I don't participate as much as I would like. The boss would kill me if he knew I was visiting the site while I was suppose to be working. So unless I have a lot of time at home to be on, I don't get the chance to get here that much.
But, with that I still say leave it like it is.
