    those buttons on the top right (Register, Profile,...Logout), I suggest that they be changed to plain text links. loading every individual button is unecessary and slows my page loading a lot. maybe put something else there?

    (I'm new to this forum and the button thingie struck me immediately when i loaded, i think a lot of people would appreciate it too)

    I'm a 56k user myself. I found that once the pictures are in your temporary internet files, then pages load a lot quicker.

    I have an Uber Tax-Payer Funded Work Internet Connection, so those buttons load pretty darned fast for me.... :smile:

    At home though.... Jarinor is right. Once they've loaded, it seems to be okay. Of course, the other problem is everyone's GOD DAMNED signature pics....

    Maybe if there was a graphics site and a text site ?

    Sounds like a lot of work, though...

    Went off to uni. Got 24-hour network (supposed to be T3 but it's shared). Don't care anymore.


    But on a side note, Maniac's Temple of Aozoo page looks much, much cooler than House of Lords. No offense.

    First off, it's a whole different type of sofware used to create a board, sencond of all, it looks like there's a safari going on there and last of all, it's not maniac's board.
