texte = The site took 1 1/2 minutes to load on a dogass slow 56K dialup connection that only gets 24K throughput (thanks Verizon!). That might translate into 30 seconds on a 56 K dialup, which is what you should be coding for. I checked our site on the same dialup, and it took 12 seconds to load.IMHO, the site is too graphics heavy. You might see if you can eliminate some of the graphics on the sidebars.
