It's loading 102 images that aren't cached by your browser. That's why. Loads in about 2-3 for me, but I'm on a quick connection.

Really no way to fix it, short of having it load a lot fewer smilies. Meaning I remove a bunch, or I see if I can break them out into categories so they don't load all at once. I don't know if that functionality is there though.

I'll keep poking around. I just needed to know what the page load time is to try and understand where the slowdown is.

You guys might as well be speaking Portuguese b/c I have no idea what the hell you are talking about. My computer skills stop at being able to check email and find porn....

Let me translate.


Thump: It's slow. Why?

Clarity: Fine here, you just suck.

:biggrin:

I actually do notice a pause when it's loading the smilies. Nothing awful, but I am on 6 meg cable. I can see how it would be pretty delayed on dialup. Like Mili said though, I rarely bother with em, just type the code.

I have a feature I'd like to see here but don't know if it is possible.

I know at the O-zone they have an "Admin actions" link.

It shows who moved what thread or deleted what thread.

I think it's a nice check and balance here to keep any mod who gets pissed at someone from just deleting their thread or editing that person's post. ( and let me say that I've not seen that happen here yet.)

I know that a lot of times it says "Edited by Mili at......." but still think it would be nice to see what Admins and mods. are deleting or moving certain threads.

Just a thought.

It would be nice if there is a way to know where a split thread came from. Maybe just adding it to the first line of the split thread... just an idea. Not a big need tho

I like this idea. Just need to think of a way to implement it. Currently it's all logged, but the output is limited to the administrative control panel. Seems like it should be a matter of permissions to make it open access.

I have a couple ideas on how to deal with the smilies issue. It's not a bug, it's just we have too damn many of the little buggers. If you load 120+ images on one page, doesn't matter how small they are, it's going to take a little while. My first notion is breaking them up into sets of 20 or so, and having a pulldown where you can jump between the sets. The up side to that notion is it would all be HTML editing in the templates, and not a code hack. Meaning I could figure it out on my own without destroying much in the process. After my move when things calm down, I'll definitely play around with it.

If you ask me, we can get rid of the Big 10 flags at the bottom of the smilies list. I've never seen any of those used.

Also, is there a way to get some of the popular animated smilies like :roll1: :rofl: :slappy: :tibor: in the main smilies list on the right side of the message?

Kind of like Bucknuts has.
