Another thing may be that your pictures are in a format with extremely large files. If you use high resolution pictures in any format that produce large files it will take some time to load them.
If this is the case, change your images to a .jpg format and downsize the resolution to the 300-600 dpi range and it will work much faster.

Not too computer savvy here (as you might > have guessed). I think it might just be that you are asking your computer to do a job which it struggles with. Does your computer generally run fairly slowly? Does it have plenty of RAM (memory) and free hard disk space? Is the computer fairly old or reasonably new? -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
