Perhaps we'll have to do without attachments until we switch over to the new system - or possibly even after.
Actually, I just tested attachments with the lastest beta version of the new system and attachments seem to work beautifully - no slowdown on the forum at all.
It's still a bit too early to say anything for certain because Midnite, dom, and I will need to do further tests on the system and discuss what we think among ourselves, but if it looks like the new system will be a better fit with this host, we may make the switch to it while it's still in its beta phase. Many of the kinks that were in earlier beta versions have been worked out, though a few problems do still remain...
