I really envy the folk with high speed hookups, but out here in the sticks, I only see and average dialup connect speed of 26.4 - and it appears the page headers used on this site are pretty hi-res, and really take a lot of &quot;extra&quot; time to load, which gets to be sort of a problem if you regularly go thru a number of different section. I wonder if quality would suffer all that much if the header resolution was reduced somewhat to allow quicker loading for us country bumpkins with slow Internet access? I don't seem to have a similar problem with most other sites, and their headers, illustrations and such all look fine...<br><br>Just a suggestion...

 

Still seems pretty slow - the first load of the day takes about a full minute for each section I go to - after that, it loads quite quickly from memory - initially, the headers seem to download in about 4 stages of resolution, until it finally completes - not a big deal I suppose, just thought the header image resolution might be higher than it really needed to be.<br><br>BUT, now that the &quot;recent posts&quot; size has been expanded (thanks again!), I can usually just use that feature, and don't need cruise thru individual sections as much...
