BWP awards - is their website terrible or is it just me?

I've just tried to register for the 2013 BWP awards and found their website to be veeerrrryyyy slow. Has anyone else noticed this?

Also in order to register you need to enter your date of birth in a specific format but it doesn't say which. there's a little calendar icon which you can click on but it comes up as February 2013. I know people start photography young these days but that's ridiculous!

The drop down calendar starts at 1913 not 2013. Click on the triangle and a drop down of all the years appears. Do the same with the month then click on your birthday.

Isn't the closing date tomorrow? If so it will be slow whilst everyone uploads at the last minute!

I didn't get a drop down list - just a Feb 2013 calendar as if I were booking a train ticket........very strange......

I note also that if I click for background image credit, the images arrive - eventually - but no credit.....

It's still excruciatingly slow for me.

Are you sure it is 2013 not 1913? Very easy to assume as I did when I first looked! Then there is a tiny triangle next to the month and year which when you click it drops down to show the other months and years?

Must have missed the little triangle.

Anyway I sgned up as being born on February 1st 2013 so I'll probably be judged in the "barely out of the mother's womb" age-group.....should have quite a good chance this year!
