yep, it has been very slow for me also - both on Firefox and Explorer - so i don't think it's a browser issue. I advised Rob and he was looking into it.... it is annoying. And it will effect how often i come to the board, i can't be bothered if i have to wait and wait for page loads.

i'm thinking it may have something to do with this board being so much more complex... lots more to load than the very simple technology of the old board. but that's just a guess -
