FRAPPR... anyone notice?

Post by Indawoods »

Has anyone noticed that the Frappr.com thumbnails at the bottom of the page has really been a drag on the site? :evil:

I load the page scroll as quick as I can down and the banner is there. I tried opening Firefox in 5 different windows and as quick as I could scroll through them, they were there. Beats me....

BTW I don't care either way if it stays or goes. :mrgreen:

Hehe... Well it must go then... :rolleyes:

In actual fact on my PC when I open about 10 or more windows of Firefox, the header loads slower than Frapper.

You know not what you say. I've been stuck on a 26.4 kbps connection for years! Talk about learning patience...12 more days, and I finally get a high speed connection. :grin:
