Welcome back everyone!

WOW...Lost my font but the site is amazing...off to explore some more.
Well done Richard and Co
And thank you for keeping the Summer theme picture:WINK1:

 

The site looks great. The whole change over was well executed. Well done Richard and everyone who helped.

 

Phew... this is different, but made it back ok after some hassle with my password.
Hi everybody from a rather wet Vale today.
Looks like I have to search out and reload my avatar. Could be a good reason to update it.
Off foe looke around.
Byee.

 

Nice to be back.
Seems I'm a new member now, oh well time I made a new start.

Is it just me, or is it all running very s l o w .

Takes ages for the pages to change, but it could be me I guess.

 

The reason its abit slow is google bot is online in a HUGE way, about 200 bots crawling GC at the moment

once they finish indexing we'll speed up greatly

 

Right thankyou Richard.

 

very welcome. seems 100 of them have finished indexing now

its sped up alot for me now

 

Flippin' nightmare to us mere mortals.....will get there in the end though.

 

Good it is finished now.

 

Still very slow

 

Looks brilliant, will get a little getting used to, parts still running slow for me too....on the whole though very good, well done all involved..

 

Connection keeps timing out. its so slow now.

Only just managed to get back on.

OH and I had to log back in despite always using the "remember me" box.

 

This forum has slowed down so much i can paint the forth road bridge while I am waiting just to try and log in and then it keeps timing outI then managed to log in but on my first post in the introduction thread top Accidental Gardener,i couldn't post my message as it timed out again with an error message and then when it did post it posted it twice.I tried deleting one of the posts,but all it did was time out again so now there are two of the same posts from me

Also the Avatar pictures are all blurred looking and I can't get my swans to work.

Anyway,hope the site clicks in to place eventually and many Thanks for all the hard work being done behind the scenes to make the site run smoothly.

 

At least I logged on quicker than previous change overs, I hope it does speed up, well done, looks like an improvement.
Mandy, you've stopped blinking!

 

Animated gifs as avatars are also being looked into as it requires something to be configured by the host however if you host the image somewhere else and link to it in your signature then it will still work

Edit*

Apparently this has now been fixed all you need to do is re-upload your animated avatar and it will miraculously work:WINK1:
