Default Slow site

This site is much slower to load than the other forums that I post on. Is this a personal problem or are others experiancing this? I am new to this site. Not trying to cause problems.

It should be fast then. Are you using IE or Firefox?

If IE, you may need to do some cleaning of your cookies history and whatnot, that typically lags IE (at least XP's IE, I've never used the new one).

EDIT: Also, I've sometimes had to wait up to 30 seconds for a complete page load, the server does have quite a big of stress with so many pages, members, and stuff, it's a bit of a workload, not to mention anything else that may be hosted here as well.

I noticed it started loading up pages slowly about a weeks ago. It was about the same time as the members photo gallery pics started coming up on top of the page.
