That would take 5 minutes to load the page...sorry...I wouldn't be waiting that long (Even on DSL, that page took a little while ) Try compressing the images a bit more. Also, on Opera 6...your Shout-Out table looks a bit messed up. Possibly because of that input box?
Yes, it is rather large. However, we did take into account the growing base of broadband users. But more to the point...how long does the chief delphi board take to load on a 28.8? I'm guessing this is at least 600 kb...
Your speed issues connecting may have been because I've been asking all of my team members to register for our forum.
I'll talk to the resident design god about compressing the images more, though.

p.s. I think he fixed the shout out box. Let me know if it still plagues you.
