Yeah the whole deal with Verizon and Cogent has been so disheartening, I'm really disappointed in both companies for not being able to sort this out. Would be nice if Cogent just kicked Netflix out but I know that won't happen, so we all get to suffer while Verizon wages war over their own video on demand service.

We should go back to loading smaller versions of the images in the Art Portal... It's just nice to have the big one already loaded when you want to view full size... We should at least consider compressing things to a really high quality JPG when someone uploads a 1+ meg image.

Merry Christmas!

Works great off-peak hours, but sometime after 5PM on the East coast, slooow.

Yeah, I remember those days, be a shame to go back to them... wouldn't that double the number of Art Portal files on your end O_O? If nothing else, add a button (maybe full-screen) so the image fits in browser window. Some of the scouted artists upload these 5MB+ monsters, and when you click on it, you get about 2% of the image on screen.

You can't keep up with Follow Friday can you, Tom?

All the games were good. I was impressed by all of them. Not to get off subject.... I need 3D programers, voice actors, graphic, for a MMO I'm making. Message me if you are interested.
