    It does load a little slow. Also, it doesn't have that "in your face" feel like most video sites. I like the logo, but it needs more of that.

    Good, not too slow. But I'll concern in your logo,.. I think you have to ask someone to create a new logo to make it funniest so visitor will smile once look at you logo.

    I am not sure what the problem is with the speed, all videos are hosted on youtube and I have a website speed test showing a 21 second load time on the slowest internet connection. Anybody have any suggestions as to why it loads slow for some people?
    Thanks

    Incase anybody else has this problem in the future, the problem is too many mysql requests at the same time from my shared hosting. A combination of plugins and the fact I have about 20 blogs on this hosting. Guess its time to upgrade.

    Great look, I see alot of load issues people are talking about and to each there own, I can remember my boss telling me when the net was still on dialup to program the systems to load at around 2600 baud yes Loooooooong time ago..Then it was 56k load time....Just keep in mind most people only get a 512 kbs to a 1 meg down stream...I am lucky enough that my area offers a 25mb line 15 up 10 down so you're site load time was less than a few mill secs...Just remember when coding don't code for yourself code for you're viewers.

    It loaded pretty well for me, maybe a second longer than usual but no worse :).
    As far as the look, it could use a little more color and categorizing. Right now it looks kinda like YouTube without all the pictures or color, I'd ad some blue or red, but that's just my opinion.
    Also I don't now if you know this but I'm pretty sure this video is an ad It loaded pretty well for me, maybe a second longer than usual but no worse :).
