Re: slow or is it me

Its to do with a couple of things, firstly if you use Internet Explorer it waits till its downloaded everything before it displays it. if any parts of teh page are slow( a small graphic etc) it slows teh whole thing down.

You can try Opera or Firefox as they tend to paint teh screen as stuff is downloaded so you 'see' things quicker.

Also I believe teh blue themem isn't as ' fancy' in how its made up hence its quicker to download/draw.

Re: slow or is it me

I find it about the same speed on both skins but I'm using Firefox.

Not slow at all ;)

Roy	04-06-2008 03:25

Re: slow or is it me

For me it is also the same speed on red and blue, I think it is also down to speed of connection and speed of computer. The red skin is bigger and more complicated so will take more time, but when mixed with fast connection and fast computer (and decent browser) they render the same. I still recommend anybody who isn't using firefox to download it and give it a try, it is much faster.
