" I'm sure you guys know there is a major problem going on with the servers." I'm sure they do. The point is that no explanation has yet been offered (Stacey did acknowledge the existence of the problem in another thread though). The galleries are OK (so far). Right now things are very slow, but also right now there's a stink (unrelated to forum slowness) going on in the merchant forum -- a thread that's getting LOTS of contributions flying in. Maybe there's a clue there?
