Hi Friends, what happened to the forum, i cannot see any likes at any post, my avatar is gone.....
Is this just me or do others have these problems too?
I read on another thread that this site was loading very slowly, and when Fred looked into it, it turns out that the code for the "likes" was the culprit. I'm sure Fred will fix it shortly!!

I have noticed how slowly pages were loading. I also note how fast they are loading now! I, for one, could live with written comments only and fast loading pages vs 'likes' and slow opening pages. That's if we have to choose one over the other.

Noticed it has been very slow here ... thought it had to do with flickr
who has been slow for a very long time.. I think
But I don't understand how it can be slower with a like system ?

When building the page, the number of likes for each user and the number of likes for each image in the thread has to be read from a database. For a full page of 20 posts, that's 40 requests needed. Depending on the way it's architected, the Like system can need a fair amount of resources. If there is something about the design or a bug that makes it slower, that slowness has the potential of being multiplied by 40.

My avatar is still there,but I don't like latest changes very much.I think they should at least have been announced in advance if not asked for our opinions first.
From my A7ii during a Folkfest with Canon FD 200mm F2.8. It has been cropped for better composition and to remove the big head in front of where I was sitting.
It was a very colorful event for sure!

Thanks for the explanation
However, I like the like system ... .. think it shows some appreciation on the image if you hit the button ...
is virtually impossible to comment on all the images that you like and think is good.
then you must sit and write too much in every post
and then I think people get tired and choose not to comment on the picture even if he or she likes it ?
think anyone who post or upload their images would have some kind of appreciation or feedback .. what is good or what can be done better, etc... otherwise you don't post unless it is scientific tests camera or lens .. comparison etc...

or think I'm wrong ?

I would have 'liked' this response if I could! But I wonder, if we could only have 'likes' with slow loading of pages if it is worth ditching the likes. Then when/if people comment, they are truly impressed with an image. It's like culling your portfolio . . . there are a lot of images you like but only a few really stand out. Of course, I'm with you Ronnie, I would prefer to have it all . . . fast loading pages and the ability to 'like' an image.
