I could not access the forum from my PC last evening or this morning. I wanted to post my resized signature photo. I can get on from my iPad. I am wondering if my PC is the problem.

I have been getting server errors trying to log onto the site for months. I always figured it was my computer or browser. Glad I am not the only one.

That is a nice looking Dart, Sam!

Well now, this is a bit of a gordian knot, is it not? :wink:

Thanks Reed. I think I am just about finished with fooling around with the exterior appearance. I might put a spoiler on the rear if I can come up with a subtle, tasteful design. I have been looking at the 80's BMW 6 series.

That's Funny!!! :lol:

I haven't had any problems with the forum...so it might be on the PC, provider end. I added a sig pic, i'm wondering if mine might be a little too big?

Got on it this morning and lost it during reload. This is from ipad. I wonder if this is speed related. Firefox tends to collect cookies and such and ends up being a memory hog. It may simply time out.

Thanks...

Your dart looks really nice! The orange with black hood is 8)

Do you have the same type of problem on other websites? I use firefox with windows 7 on a wireless DSL connection and haven't had any problems...with windows i think internet explorer is definitely more of a memory hog than firefox. I tend to use firefox more for browsing

Have you tried the apple safari browser? It maybe the ipad's not maintaining a good connection with the router...how far away from the router are you when you use it?

Everything else seems to work. I have to close down the computer to unload it.

IPad works better.

Me too, I've always get on, but not on the first or second try sometimes. Computer displays the unable to connect screen with the try again button.
