I have noticed a really marked slowdown for some time now, in the time it takes to load the site, and then the different pages after that.. I have DSL that is working fine, and I keep my cookies and temp files cleaned out all the time.. I had to wait a long time this weekend but I thought that was the holiday, but today is is still very slow! I placed my order yesterday.. and all the parts are working (especially the credit card padlocked part! :)) but the download was soooo slow - again I assumed from the holiday traffic. Right now, I see aprox 1200 folks signed on, which seems to be an average no matter when I log on.. Just thought I should mention this situation and see if the powers that be know.. and have some way to help. Thanks, Lyne

I have also noticed the slowness recently. We are on DSL in the office and I'm the only one who accesses that connection, but the connection to 'Rosity seems to take as long as dialup.

Thanks. We are currently working on servers. This has been a long process for us. Basically trying different combinations to increase speed. We are trying to copy over all the information to another application. This is taking way much longer than we had hoped... several weeks. :( Please be patient as we try to get this working. Once we have the data moved, everyone should see an increased improvement. That is the plan anyway. thanks tammy

The best laid plans of mice and men... Not a problem. I know what it's like. I'm currently trying to configure 3 different servers myself at the moment. My home office looks like something that should be in a large office with 1 server cabinet and 3 rack mounted servers. Not to mention enough cable to wrap the entire house in.

I thought it was my connection, if only I had poser5 to keep me occupied while I wait for the site to load ;) good luck with the improvements Rob
