No seriously, it still loaded the same for me and I guess since I am not a loser gamer..(I have a real life) not an imaginary one online..I guess since games and the gamers are more important then us Who cares what we think....this is exactley the reason I did not renew my wincust subscription and I did renew my stardock OD account.....

Well, the bottleneck is no longer on Stardock's end, Drop125 - it's very very noticeably faster & I'm on cable. Something must be holding things up between SD & you.

Thx Brad....using FiOS from Verizon at alittle over 14Mbps download speed - the site really moves now. I still have the occational "suspend" going into some sections, but most of the stuff I'm interested in is right there at a click of the mouse! 5/STARS!

TerryX: You're the other side of the world. This is an image-heavy site, which means that unfortunately there are a lot of round-trips to make. Stardock doesn't keep cache servers in different countries (at least not for WinCustomize . . . not sure about the latest game release), so I'm afraid it's probably always going to be slow for you. You could try a different browser to see if it pipelines it better, I guess.

TerryX: Yep - it's pretty much the same for me as well, but GreenReaper's comments make sense. Mind you, the speed with which pages display was never really such a pain, there are plenty of other sites that are the same or worse. The download speed is a bit of a pain sometimes though (especially for Stardock Central), but I haven't tried that yet.
