I've updated to FF 6.0 and nothing has changed.
Dear Lord, On this day, please wrap your arm around my shoulder and keep your hand over my mouth.  Amen

I need to update Dianna's laptop and see if it makes a difference there.

I'm curious if any of the other FF users are having this issue.  I tried unchecking the hardware acceleration and the smileys load and have their normal motion for about 5 seconds, then they slow down.  I'm still searching the FF site for a fix.

Nope. I updated to FF6 today. I did not have delays loading smilies before or after.
I run a 2002 Dell XP, SP2, Intel Pentium 4CPU 2.66 GHz, 256 MB RAM. And other stuff after that means little to me.

Turned off* images in browser and page loads fast in post reply. No lag either. Firefox is having an issue with certain parts of SMF.

*  not recommended though, forum looks too weird without images, its more or less text based.

I wouldn't say it is FireFox having as issue with SMF because I don't have an issue with any of the systems I use and FireFox.  It just seems to be certain combinations of hardware.  Basically it's the animated gifs that are slowing things down a bit.  That animation can be turned off in FireFox.  The default is Normal.  Of course if you turn it off, it turns off for all the sites you frequent.

At least mine is having issues with this SMF setup, seems to be the only one. Now that I turn images on, back to slowness, post lag, fast if off (everything works as it should, minus no images).

When I used latest version 3.x.x, no problem.

Beats me, though I never looked for a solution anywhere.

Updated to 7.0 and no change.

Have absolutely no clue why this is happening.

I thought I read somewhere that the black boxes around the dice on the yahtzee game was gone. Just wanted to find out what you did, as mine are not gone and I'm totally updated to FF 8.0.1.  The smilies seem to be working now though.

I mentioned the blocks around yahtzee dice are gone, but no clue why. Still having problems with FF 8.0

Since all themes are/were available, no change from any, so its not theme specific.

I know its not my end, near fresh windows install and new connection haven't solved it, but can say it resolves around the smiley area. When posting reply or new topic the clock doesn't open when double-clicked over smileys, when I scroll down and double-click clock it opens.

Firefox 10.0.2

Actually it is your end William.  I use Firefox on 4 different computers and don't have the issue you describe.  What clock are you talking about that doesn't open???

Its Firefox even with fresh windows install. Guess FF doesn't like me and/or my computer.

I just tried IE 8 and everything works.

Don't like Googles browser, so that won't be installed. And I don't much care for IE either.

Removed Opera, don't really like it either, tried Avant browser, but it was awful, uninstalled that.

Must be a FF setting that could be altered, someday will find it.

At this view smileys are slow. And other things go wonky (bookmark list, post button, etc).

This view smileys run normally. And other things run normally.

Sticking with FF.

No issues anymore, not sure what happened though.

I did nothing that solved it.

An added benefit of our changing host?  Wonder if Barb is still having the same issue?

You think previous host (might) have been the cause.

Yep, because I haven't done anything to the SMF files here.  The only thing that has changed on this end is the host.
