Here is some info about the site why its so dodgy right now


* TOTAL_HTML - Congratulations, the total number of HTML files on this page (including the main HTML file) is 1 which most browsers can multithread. Minimizing HTTP requests is key for web site optimization. Y

* TOTAL_OBJECTS - Warning! The total number of objects on this page is 77 which by their number will dominate web page delay. Consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Above 20 objects per page the overhead from dealing with the actual objects (description time and wait time) accounts for more than 80% of whole page latency. See Figure II-3: Relative distribution of latency components showing that object overhead dominates web page latency in Website Optimization Secrets for more details on how object overhead dominates web page latency. Combine, refine, and optimize your external objects. Replace graphic rollovers with CSS rollovers to speed display and minimize HTTP requests. Consider using CSS sprites to help consolidate decorative images. Using CSS techniques such as colored backgrounds, borders, or spacing instead of graphic techniques can reduce HTTP requests. Replace graphic text headers with CSS text headers to further reduce HTTP requests. Finally, consider optimizing parallel downloads by using different hostnames or a CDN to reduce object overhead.

* TOTAL_IMAGES - Warning! The total number of images on this page is 69 , consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Recommend combining, replacing, and optimizing your graphics. Replace graphic rollover menus with CSS rollover menus to speed display and minimize HTTP requests. Consider using CSS sprites to help consolidate decorative images. Use CSS techniques such as colored backgrounds, borders, or spacing instead of graphic techniques to reduce HTTP requests. Replace graphic text headers with CSS text headers to further reduce HTTP requests. Finally, consider optimizing parallel downloads by using different hostnames to reduce object overhead.

* TOTAL_CSS - Caution. The total number of external CSS files on this page is 3 , consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Because external CSS files must be in the HEAD of your HTML document, they must load first before any BODY content displays. Although they are cached upon subsequent requests, CSS files slow down the initial display of your page. Combine, refine, and optimize your external CSS files. Ideally you should have one (or even embed CSS for high-traffic pages) on your pages. You can optimize CSS files using shorthand properties, grouping, and then minify and GZIP compress them to reduce their footprint. Remember to place CSS files in the HEAD and JavaScript files at the end of the BODY to enable progressive display.

* TOTAL_SIZE - Warning! The total size of this page is 1706207 bytes, which will load in 355.44 seconds on a 56Kbps modem. Consider reducing total page size to less than 100K to achieve sub 20 second response times on 56K connections. Pages over 100K exceed most attention thresholds at 56Kbps, even with feedback. Consider optimizing your site with Website Optimization Secrets, Speed Up Your Site or contacting us about our optimization services.

* TOTAL_SCRIPT - Caution. The total number of external script files on this page is 4 , consider reducing this to one or two. Combine, refactor, and minify to optimize your JavaScript files. Ideally you should have one (or even embed scripts for high-traffic pages) on your pages. Consider suturing JavaScript files together at the server to minimize HTTP requests. Placing external JavaScript files at the bottom of your BODY, and CSS files in the HEAD enables progressive display in XHTML web pages.

* HTML_SIZE - Congratulations, the total size of this HTML file is 3477 bytes, which less than 50K. Assuming that you specify the HEIGHT and WIDTH of your images, this size allows your HTML to display content in under 10 seconds, the average time users are willing to wait for a page to display without feedback.

* IMAGES_SIZE - Warning! The total size of your images is 1477780 bytes, which is over 100K. Consider switch graphic formats to achive smaller file sizes (from JPEG to PNG for example). Finally, substitute CSS techniques for graphics techniques to create colored borders, backgrounds, and spacing.

* SCRIPT_SIZE - Warning! The total size of external your scripts is 139139 bytes, which is over 20K. Consider optimizing your JavaScript for size, combining them, and using HTTP compression where appropriate for any scripts placed in the HEAD of your documents. You can substitute CSS menus for JavaScript-based menus to minimize or even eliminate the use of JavaScript.

* CSS_SIZE - Warning! The total size of your external CSS is 85811 bytes, which is over 20K. Consider optimizing your CSS for size by eliminating whitespace, using shorthand notation, and combining multiple CSS files where appropriate. By using labeled container cells and descendant selectors you can target chunks of HTML content efficiently without the need to embed extra claases and styles.
* MULTIM_SIZE - Congratulations, the total size of all your external multimedia files is 0 bytes, which is less than 10K.


might help here is the site I used http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/

I got 2 new problems.

1. Just wanted to upload a ne Chop,
i putt in the pics and the text like before, but if i click on save
it just shows the text but no picture.

2. If i want to delete a wall comment (because of double posting) it says "invalid comment ID" and I find myself back on my own profile.
Thanks for the info guys, Good news is that the majority of the issues have been sorted out now. The email options are fixed, the banners are fixed, image upload now supports png, deleting comments works etc etc and I'm starting on alot of the other suggestions you guys are coming up with.

@Glacius, thanks for running the site through that. I'm aware of most of those web optimisation practices, it's just I unfortunately didn't have time to put most of them into place due to wanting to get this thing live asap ;) I aim to optimize the site real soon: basically as soon as these main priorities free up.

Just as a sidenote, (this is for aspiring web developers out there), this yahoo resource:
http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html is the NO.1 guideline out there for building performance web pages, you'll learn alot from there ;)
I didn't go through the whole thread / wall of text, so this is what I'd like to see optimized in your beautifully crafted forum system :D

- in the forum display, besides the last post by whoever, also show the thread the last post was posted in.
- have the option to go to other pages of the thread also on the top in addition to the bottom.
A possible improvement that I've seen on other forums is a search option. Like here. We had a similar thing on psu where you could search the forums for keywords etc.
