Back on topic... I have to agree, that with the other "main" site now up, I think all the MySpace slideshows and other embedded multimedia stuff should be relocated to that site. I'm on cable and this board is still a pain in the arse sometimes having to load all this extra stuff. Its being discussed and once we find a solution we will make the change. People also have to consider that this is on proboards servers, not our own. Our board is on the same server as several other, maybe thousands, of other boards. Its the nature of the beast when you have the "free" message boards. But i agree, the loading times can and will be be improved. There are free boards you can run on your own server.

With less pizazz graphics. Move up from the tin cans tied to a string connection.

So in the end its not free. Luckily my other sites that i have hosted more than cover my costs. I do not charge anything for our sites. We do have a backup board on standby though i dont ever suspect that we'll use it unless proboards gets wiped out.

I know you pay. I have a few different domains (3 to be exact) and I pay $9.95 per month. You can find even cheaper hosting services out there.
