I'm betting one of the moderators will move your question to a more appropriate forum that will make it more likely to find what you are looking for!! Good luck!!!

All the changes sound great. I have't read all the pages so I hope I'm not repeating anything. Will the site be dial up friendly? Yes, sad to say I do not have access to high speed. Some sites I just can't get on and I can't see videos either. I'm really hoping I will be able to continue participating in this site.

ray's two cents :

I have another pesky question.

You say this conversion will be happening on Tuesday... will that be my Wednesday?

I believe that it would be Tuesday PST timeline that the conversion will happen...so it kind of depends where in the world you're located

I'm not sure where you're at

PST... that's the western side, right?

I'll do the calculations. Thanks.

Unfortunately, for all the features and nifty things, it's not very dial up friendly. That said, there IS a lot of customization that can be done to make it a bit easier on the bandwidth thing - removing ads (GFM and PPMs), cutting out avatars, hiding signatures and the like that might make it perk up a little bit more on dialup
