This new feature slows down the website-I don't like it.
Might be you.
Not slowing me down any.
Takes some getting used to, but causing no issues for me viewing, loading, reading, etc the site.

Sorry ADMIN but I have to agree.Quote:

Well it's only on the homepage for now and the featured area is really just in a testing phase right now (Even its size/shape/content is not set in stone). But we'll definitely be using it to feature awesome threads, offers from members, contests, polls and probably some other stuff.
Can we make it smaller? I still use a Dell D510 with a 1024x768 screen. The banner takes up most of my screen. A slimmer, "weight-watchers" version seems like a nice idea to me, though.

Yes, dimensions have been adjusted along with some other small things.Quote:

Wasn't hurting my load times or reading ability but was kinda annoying to see it at the top of threads an on the "what's new" page.
I like it, look forward to seeing it used in the future.

For Firefox try an add-on called NoSquint. You can adjust the size of text and graphics per website to make them easier to view. Works great on wide format pages and also my old tired eyes.

But, we're always trying to improve where we can so feedback is always welcome. And I'm glad you like it!
PS - By default, it shows images you include in your threads, so threads with pictures (either as attachments or otherwise) will look better in the new slider.
I take it that last night was one of those getting thingsQuote:
