    Hello all -

    This morning I made some changes to the site and moved a lot of the "static" files that are most often accessed to a CDN (content distribution network). This should speed up page loads and make PC overall a bit peppier. Have you noticed any differences?

    One issue I see is that the reply box is now not styled properly. It has a grey background and the font is wrong. I'll see about fixing that.

    It sort of stalled for me a few times, earlier. Seemed to happen especially when posting or editting a post. Ok right now.

    The font is different but I wouldn't say that it's "wrong". I mean, who are you to push your openly anti-Tahoma agenda on us?

    The font in the reply box threw me at first. But then it comes out normal in the actual post.

    It is quicker. Sportier. Like, it has more torque or something.

    Hey Mods,

    When I'm using my iPhone to visit Priuschat, is there a way to make the TapTalk box stop popping up?

    Yeah, it's faster for me. I tried out the Amazon CDN but haven't done too much switch-over on my web sites.

    Much faster here. Was the data size of the pages also reduced?

    Hmm, it seems PC has gone back to is previous state. It's anyone else experiencing it or is it locally on my computer?
