Hn? Why don't you just post your graphics here? At Renderosity is a great community. Take care, Jimi

Well, one of the reasons i just hate MSN is because the time one could spend with some nice CG, one have to spend with deleting and blocking 200 spam-mails every single day! No thanx!

And this obviously was a drive-by spam. The guy registered here just to send trash. Aaargh. BTW, as to the registration and all that, does anybody of you have problems accessing Renderosity when there's many people logged in? There's currently 1317 members logged in, and I have to wait for about 20 sec for any page to display.

Erlik! Im also having that problem. One might think, sitting on a DSL connection should minimize displaying time, but nope! Renderosity is unfortunatly often very slow.

it doesn't matter if I'm at home, on my cable connection, or at school on the T1, I've always had to wait a long time for pages to load.

No problems here. I'm on AOL and the d/load time for these pages is usually ok.

Hm. Does it have anything to do with the logging process? I think the server chekcs your cookies any time you access the site. But then, AOL would have been affected, too. Chris, what browser do you use? AOL's IE or something else? I only get a quicker, normal, display time when there's less than 900 people logged in.

I notice a slow down to at times, but sometimes there's 1300+ log on sometimes less than 1100. Sometime there's 1400 logged on and it never slows down. I just figure at the slow times there's a lot of activity ( up-loading and such ) which might take priority over simple page request ( I don't know ) I'm on a cable connection to.

well, if the survey they took recently is any indication of things to come, it looks like they will be revamping the whole site, probably to streamline it a bit more.

I think it's the server software. It's probably very easy to administer, but it's sloooooooow. That's what I put in the survey. It's very, very slow. On occasion, I can't access it at all because the site's database is overloaded. No, it's not the connection on your end, it's 'rosity's problem. On a dial-up, it's difficult to notice, but with broadband it lags pretty hard.

Well, I figured that if I'm getting 1.3Mb transfer rates, that it prolly wasn't on my end. It's good to know that something could be done about it though...
