Trying to access or upload to the gallery is like waiting for my old 386 to boot up (yes I'm that old)Its a wonderful feature, but regulars are just not using it anymore due the length of time it takes to gain access upload and move around. Please please try and speed things up I miss the gallery.

Hi all,
I'm very sorry to say that I don't think there is anything we can do about this in the short term. We are monitoring the Community site and we know that it's performance is not acceptable. Unfortunately this bad performance is simply not something we can solve overnight.
However, I can tell you that we have just started the process of finding new, faster web servers on which to host our website.
We are also spending a large proportion of our time finding ways to optimise the other areas of the site (ie not the Community) in order to give the Community software more resources (ie breathing room).
Unfortunately both of these things take time and our best guess is that the new servers will not be ready until September at the earliest.
I'm sorry I don't have better news but please bear with us - you make our Community what it is.
Graham
Got some feedback about our community? Let us know in the Feedback forum.
Thanks Graham! It's all positive news so we'll just have to be patient!! I love this site and appreciate all the work that is done behind the scenes to keep it running!!
It's a shame beacuase I really like the site but it's totally unusable at times....we have to be patient though.
