Deviantart slow?

[DQuaN]

For a while now i've had real trouble browsing Deviantart.

Pages take forever to load, images don't load properly, sometimes the page just times out.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Sometimes it goes uber slow for me while others it works just fine. I know earlier when I was uploading a ton of pics it seemed to be going rather slow though...

I've been having this prob with a couplke other sites, lately, but only once or twice with DA (I've been a member on that for a while).

make sure your de-bugged and de-spyed both. if it's still slower than the Milkman in January, then it might be the sight or your connection (if everything else is slow, too)

DA is loading fine on my end, no slowdowns whatsoever.

seems ok to me, although i have noticed bugs and slowdown when i use the account i dont have a sub on, whether its deliberate or not it is annoying

i dont like that new vb launch 6 thingy, i have to load every single sub-category to get where i want whereas before i can select my specific category THEN load the page

it just hit me. you're not a subscriber, right? those bleedin ads slow everything to a crawl.

no problem for me with using opera. I did block all banners. surf speed is fine.
What browser are you using?

I use firefox 3.0 with adblock and flashblock.

It doesn't load half the time.

SOOO SLOOOW

It loads perfectly fine for me, it might be your physical connection.

same here; loads slow.. "loading" forever.. and basically I have to refresh to get it to load anything. Including stuff in my own gallery. You know how frustrating that is??
[i am also on firefox 3, and this has been a problem since they 'updated' their system @ dA]

Well DA is a heavy site with images ya know. I also use Firefox 3 too and I have no problems because my download speed at the most is 10MB per second.
