Receiving "Script Running Slowly" Error?

[yourLDSneighborhood]

I went out to Flickr, which is the company which hosts the photos function on our network and found this information:

"The "Organizer" is made with Macromedia Flash. A Flash movie consists of graphics and programming code (script) which controls interactivity. The Flash movie is embedded into a web page and you view it with the Flash Player as part of your web browser.

"The Flash player raises the error you mention when something in the code takes longer than 15 seconds to execute. This is most often caused by an infinite loop, although there can be other causes too. Flash is very dependent on processor and RAM (memory) resources, so a particularly complex operation may take more than 15 seconds to complete on a slow computer, and this could in turn trigger the error.

Basically, it's a programming or error or architectural issue in the Flash movie on the Flickr web site. Nothing for you to panic about (it can't hurt you, and it doesn't mean there is anything wrong with your computer), but something for the Flickr staff to look into.

I am researching this issue with Flickr, Ning and Flash. In the meantime, just have it reload (sometimes it takes 10 times) or just stop it, which is what I'm doing until the problem is resolved.

If you receive other errors, please let me know. In the meantime, know that we are working on the problem.

That explains why it was so slow here yesterday as well as pages were freezing up too.

Thanks Candace XO

Update:

It appears that the BMP picture format is causing this Running Script Error to occur. So, I guess from this point out, we will refrain from uploading BMPs.

Ning is working on getting this involved. In the meantime, you may want to convert the files you're uploading to JPG or TIFF.
