How about a "Lite" Skin?

Mine has gprs and all that, 'tis just that I'm not paying the monthly fee needed to keep it active as I don't surf through the phone all that much.

So I'm usually satisfied with the low rate ISDN or whatever it is I have access to without paying the monthly fee. I usually only use google or something, anyway, but on the occasions I have tried this board, it has been a hassle to view.

I thought all the images for the board where only downloaded the once and after that they are picked up out of your computers cache.

seems silly to cut out some of images if they will only load slowly the once.

Why say dialup users need a lite skin? :huh:

Dialup speed doesn't enter into it. Forum images are quick loading anyway...
...even if they are as ugly as feck. :P

The only pics that can be slow are some member's sigs... I've also noticed most pics hosted by Photo Bucket are definitely sluggish.

They get cached sure enough, but that first loadup is a bastard, and the caching isn't exactly brilliant on teh cell, either, not that much space, see.

@rossco: I think I can use my bluetooth connection to do that, maybe, if the laptop supports it.

It should be no prob with bawa's phone anyway. Not sure if the speeds would be all that great tho'.

@unzi: try it.

im for a lite skin, i have a slow compurter and its slow as hell
