CJF077 The Noble Leader Administrator 4,785 Member For: 21y 5m 17d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Australia Posted 23/06/11 01:31 AM Share Posted 23/06/11 01:31 AM Trying to get an understanding if we are having any forum speed issues with members. The server is not maxing out and does not have capacity issues, so it is not related to that.I personally do not have any issues accessing from home, or work and have average internet connections.To help with this please also post the following information after you have voted.1. How are you connected? Ethernet / Wireless / Mobile Broadband.2. What ISP do you use? And more importantly what plan are you on and speed connected? ie ADSL1 or ADSL2+ (I am connected on ADSL1 at 8mbits)3. When do you have an issue / certain time of the day / evening?4. What browser and version of browser are you using?5. What kind of computer are you running? It may in fact be your computer that it slow.Thanks for your help.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 16y 4m 5d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 23/06/11 02:51 PM Share Posted 23/06/11 02:51 PM (edited) I find the avatars take a long time to load, as they are not resized before being served, the massive original images are being squished by the browser. For example using Firefox I can right click freeze_dk's avatar and "view image" - it loads up and shows me it is really 480px × 640px and not the 130px wide (or whatever) that the avatar is sized at in the sidebar. bcl's avatar is really a 1,267px × 561px image!This isn't so much a problem for those with low quality photos "behind the scenes" (bcl's is 48KB) but it surely is a BIG waste of bandwidth.If you use Internet Exploiter then try right clicking and saving the image to your PC, then opening it up. Just found Dillz to be 1023x764 and 123KB! Edited 23/06/11 02:52 PM by -SteveR- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
