    Very good. You should take up mind reading full time.
    Doesn't alter the fact it's slow.
    I believe the word is "gratification" too.

    Need free hosting? :D

    Looks like your site is not hosted yet or maybe not registered.

    30 secs, not bad for dialup but considering that you had few images it's kind of slow.

    The whole site was there in about 5-6 secs, but the image took a while.

    I just checked in IE6 and your right links are pushing your content down the page. The content was there in about a second but the image took about 20 seconds.

    Yea, the image is the biggest part,

    The rest of the site is all just hand coded object positioned css .....

    I have noticed that wordpress plugins slow it down, I am trying to use as little as possible :)

    Thanks for the feedback again....

    I think I have cleaned the "loop" as much as possible.... for wordpress. just think thats the fastest it will go

    Its seems its faster then a lof of wordpress blogs.



    Thanks .....yea, I just installed IE7 to fix those float issues ...

    Let me ask,

    After the site did load in IE6 , was everything aligned right?

    The text was just pushed down when it was loading right?

    I think in css, you can make things load faster or first ......( off to the css forum )

    Was fast for me.

    BTW Bobcats rock. I attended a Bobcat rodeo 10 or so years ago in Australia.

    Youve seen a stunts and tricks shows with cars or motorbikes? Well, this was all Bobcats.

    Awesome :)
