I agree with the comments above.I also think this issue of speed needs resolving now. Like lots of other people I have sat on the sidelines waiting patiently while completion dates for the conversion slide further back. I also browse the galleries on a regular basis and waiting up to a minute for a page refresh is just not acceptable. It cannot be blamed on my hardware and i am sure my broadband connection is ok because I only have problems on this site. I think a lot of people are getting fed up with this now and will drift away from the site if something is not done.
