Ellatrue,

Erm, Colonial Painted Panels? It's on the 3rd page of the search when you just put in "colonial", so not sure what the problem you are having is...

The search searches the thread title and the keywords so it definately would pick that up... You probably just missed it.

Regards

Well, Dave, you obviously missed it where it was slower....

You try balancing 2.5k people online at the same time, with multiple servers, lots of bandwidth, and do it on a budget of basically zero (since it's all donations)... THEN you can complain about it.

Sorry Delphy, I didn't mean to offend, I know how much strain is put on the servers and especially the database by simultaneous requests and I know the anguish of trying to do something for the love of it that has grown beyond expectations and trying to do it on a limited budget.
I recently sold one of my pet projects for precisely those reasons, it was just that all theses posts were saying the site was flying and it wasn't on my system so I was actually worried about my system rather than the site.
As I said, this is the number one site, keep up the good work, maybe I'll send a donation once I've checked out my paypal balance.

I unfortunately have to agree... Much as I love this site, I don't come here much because the downloading process is so slow it just isn't possible... After a while I just get an "unavailable page" message (as if I'd clicked on a dead link)... It has been doing it all day today, and now I'm being told the server is yet again "temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems"...

Antonia,

Please see the site announcement, and remember that MTS2 is a free site, and it always gets busy at the weekends. Be patient and just keep trying.

Since my previous post i have been coming here in the early hours (british time), around 6am ish andit has been quite fast so i really do think that the problem is when there are lots of simultaneous users and they are clogging the bandwidth.
so antonia that is the answer.. come on at obscure times when all sane people are asleep :-)
