Re: The site being slow?
Oops, my apologies. I forgot to post back in here when I worked out what the problem was.

Yes, mine's been fine for an hour or so now (though I'd bypassed the issue with a proxy site until it resolved itself - if that helps anyone discover anything more about the issue!). Seems whatever the issue was is now fixed. -
Re: The site being slow?I have some to add, too, actually, if it'd help work out what went on. I saved them earlier. My Firefox browser and my boyfriend's Chrome Browser (his on Vista, mine on Linux) did nothing at all. White screens. However, I downloaded Arora at one point, for test purposes, and the result was this (with stylesheets plunged into chaos, it seems):(Original post by F1 fanatic)
