hey april!
i've got one of these up, too, thouh admittedly with much less stuff than
april's got up. just one design, but dammit, i like it. ;)
it says "carpe viverram" (you guessed it, seize the ferret in latin) and
has a lovely picture of tannis, sleeping with his tongue "stuck."
it's at http://www.cafepress.com/weezilarchy
the stuff's up at base price, no markup, i'm not making a dime off this.
april, it'll be a while before i have the time to screw with such fun
stuff again, but eventualy, i'd love to link our two shops and/or
collaborate somehow on this kinda stuff.

actually the slowness of scrolling is less likely a server issue and more
likely an issue with the computer itself. the whole FML downloads as a
unit, so once it's loaded, it's the computer speed that has to do with
how fast one can scroll past the extraneous (to them) bits of it. and
upgrading a computer can be a little more cost-prohibitive than switching
servers.
of course, for someone with server issues as well, they might live in a
region where good service isn't available.
(this is one of the reasons i adore BIG -- the list, being text-only, is
wonderfully low-tech, i coudl read it with PINE if i wanted!)
anyway. geektalk over.
