[quote="black_man_down"]mayb ur pc cant process the high tech material on the site[/quote]
Lol, my thought exactly. Site runs smoothly for me on my pc and dads laptop, my other pc, but a bit slower on the family pc when you scroll up page by clicking the "up" icon..

This is is a bit slow - due to too many effects on the site.
I did say it is too full!

Well now you can turn them all off.
And, if you want, you can make the site look very simple.
By in Firefox going to:
View
Page Style
No Style
Enjoy

I don't like Opera, I have IE 7 but I don't use it.
I have the latest version of FireFox and am using it.
My computer is a bit slow but other websites work faster.

Disable effects, it'll seem faster
The only thing that bugs me is the fact that there are many javascript errors.. It blocks most of the form-elements on this site, lol. But it works after striking the TAB key.
Gideon, please don't complain.. You think its slow for you, just imagine how slow it is for me......

The site is super annoying gareth.
And too much stuff gideon is absolutely right.
It isnt the lack of power pc cus even on my pc this site is annoying. Its not slow just annoying...
On my laptop i have effects disabled this is great improvment thank you for that. But its often the case that developers have large screens and fast computers and u do forget about those (the visitors) that dont. Try yo tkep it in mind.

Yea but my theory is that most people are going to buy a new pc for Vista.
All new pc's now can handle this site.
Its about time that people upgrade. And if they don't want to then they just suffer... Because the internet is getting more advanced.

Not everyone can afford a new computer just because a new OS is coming out, lol. I still have a computer that I've had for 8 years, LOL.

Well those people that cant afford another PC, will eventually have to buy another because it wont last for much longer.
Anyway, you can buy cheap new pc's.

they could always buy Windows Vista Starter, which has no features at all.
If you can get a Shader Model 2.0 Graphics card and at least a gig of ram to run Vista Premium (i think its a Gig)
