Cliketh That happens to me all the time with that skin, which is why I removed it form my forum. Sorry Slip, but your skin is slow.

lmao i guess thats a price we have to pay for making it smexi - it make use of 24bit PNGs throughout - perhaps that slows down loading of images - but that still doesn't explain how it loads in a snap for me even though I have a much slower net connection compared to the ones that are listed on this thread.

Slippy, which OS are you using? XP's PNG compression is horrible, while Vista's compression algorithm makes PNG's a much more manageable size. If you want I could resave them?

Of course I like the skin, but loading time maby put them in .gif if you put them in .jpg it will show up a bit blurry, and I think you guys want high quality.

GIF's noticeably ruin quality with any image with colours flowing from one to the next evenly, as well as curved edges.
