Does WinCustomize seem faster now? Somewhat faster or a lot faster? If it does, thank WinCustomize subscribers. Their subscriptions allowed us to buy a new server.

I agree with Bill Sawyer as far as the consistency goes. Happy to see our contributions benefit the folks still stuck behind dial-up connections also.

It certainly seems to be running better on my end. Thanks everyone!

I'm in the same position as MarkL, it' noticeably faster now.

I think the next step that would have the biggest impact on loading time would be to redo the page designs using DIV tags instead of tables. On my own sites that I've converted I've noticed a 40% to 70% decrease in loading time.

I've noticed that there are lots of pages inside the index.asp page e.g index.asp?cmd=help and index.asp?cmd=submit.

Maybe if these were split up into separate pages it would help performance?

I have bought Objectdesktop & WinCustomize. And I have to say that I love all the effects that it brings to my desaktop (BUT) I seen to have more problems with the payed for versions than I did with the free ones. But I work them out daily. I would of liked to have seen more documentation come with your products. But I have used windowblinds for years & now Objectdesktop with all the other features which I love and will continue to support your site & products.

P.S. It's much faster now.

It may be faster BUT I'm frequently having thumbnails and previews failing to download and show up in the WinCustomize Browser (I get the little red X for the picture). It's kind'a hard to know what to download if I can't take a look in advance. Sure, I can go to the site (even in the Browser) and look at things, but that kind'a defeats the purpose of the browser, doesn't it?

Any ideas on that front?

I think that the new server is still being setup...there seems to be some challenges left to do with the Wincusto Browser
