Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else is having trouble accessing the homepage regularly.
I was able to load it enough to register last Saturday, but that's all.
I've just bookmarked the forum page. I have no trouble accessing that.
I think it's the fact that there is audio to be downloaded as well as visual.
My poor little dial-up don't cope real well! :giggle:
Is there a way I can bypass the audio?
I would rather have the pretty pictures! :egyptian:
At the moment I can't get down below 13 items remaining.
Would appreciate any advice. :hug:

I have to look into this. I have trouble on my desk top, which is a little slower then my lap top. So it just might be too much for an older and/or dial up computer. Let me look into it.

If you scroll down the page, I added a "skip into" button. It should take you past the flash intro to the main homepage. I tried to add it further up on the page, but it refused to cooperate. But at least it's there, I suppose. :giggle: Hope it helps.

On my old laptop I couldn't even see anything but black and hear the music. I just clicked in the middle of the page and it took me to the choices. Apparently, very old and dial up doesn't handle it well. :roll:

Kel, do you mean the jump to box?
I can access all the things on that, it's that flash intro I'd like access to with the video slideshow of Alex's characters and the gallery.
I think if the music wasn't there, my nearly 4 year-old laptop on dial-up might just be able to handle it.
Thanks for thr responses.

Wait? You don't have access to the gallery?

I'm heading to bed now, but I'll try turning the audio off sometime tomorrow. See if it works for you then, k?

I brought this over from the "what's new on AOLpage"

Kel, do you know if it's possible to turn the audio off for individuals?
I still haven't got acess to the main page.
I would appreciate an answer, please.

actually right now the audio isn't working for anyone, we had a problem with the server, we are looking for a new one

I will see if I could find out if it could be turned of for individuals....maybe with the new server
