It's possible, if you have dial-up or a very slow connection. Is that the case?
No, I have DSL.
I thought I'd try it at home. It's much better here. There must be some problem with my connection at work. Especially if no one else is having problems.

Everything's been fine the last couple of days.

And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
It's a perfect occupation for me.
THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT- But I finally figured out why I'm having trouble getting The Border to load. I LOVE the new animated avatars but they take a LOT of time to load and then start to move. Until the motion starts, the thread does not completely load, I get a lot of little boxes with a red x in them. I figured it was just because I was on dial up but I took my laptop to the library today and The Border still loaded slow and then I noticed when the avatars started moving that it loaded faster. I love the new animated avatars but if people are having trouble with slowing loading this could be the reason.
I do notice the ani av problem, but mine is working soooooooooooooo much better today that it's nearly 100% better.
My ISP rep (internet service provider) was in this morning and said they had had some difficulties yesterday and weren't quite finished with repairs. So hopefully, that will solve all my problems.
AZ, I don't know how you can deal with dial up at all with all the pics posted here. I could never go back to that. I understand that high speed is not available to everyone though. My co-worker just lives about 3 miles from our office and she can't get DSL because she has a different ISP.

Regular pictures load pretty fast but I can't view videos (I get to impatient). They take about 30 minutes for a 4 minute video to load and then I can view it. We are suppose to get a new company in that will offer DSL. They are already in a small town near us. Superior only has 3038 people so there is not a lot of monay to be made here.
The Board's been kind of sluggish for me right now.
I had problems last night as well. I was posting in CT&W and when I selected to post I got the 'Internet Explorer Cannot Display this Page' message. I tried to go in again but could not access the message board from the EOC link. I eventually abandoned my effort and went to bed! lol!
Its fine now though!

It is incredibly slow this morning, and I couldn't even get in at all! It's fine now.
