And I was just browsing some of my favorite threads and ran across the egregiously slow loader in the Sigma DP thread here Sigma - Sigma DP Series Image Thread. I have a DSL connection (not a speed demon or anything, but not a super slow one either).....it took a full minute to display two images (when usually a photo heavy thread entire page will load in 5-10 seconds)...
So what is the solution to this? I'm not familiar with photobucket, but do they not offer a way to share a smaller file size?
I have just timed the download of these two images at 357 seconds (three hundred and fifty seven seconds), so a totally intolerable situation that rules out posting to, or looking at this thread, until this page becomes history, and indeed any other downloads from that source will cause me to stop using that thread altogether.
