Hi, all:
This is a work in progress. I like how it's turning out, but my concern is that it is slow loading. I have a relatively fast connection but I've checked the front page with Netmechanic and other analyzer tools, and the size is ridiculous. I am going to work on optimizing the images and hopefully reducing the number of items tonight, but I wondered if I could have some feedback from other people.
Not all the pages are up yet... About, News, and Gallery have content...

(in space of the *** type 'shaydoro' - this is to avoid bots/spammers.
thank you!
Full Version: advice needed: lg background image, loading time...

Re: slow loading. You have a bunch of images as backgrounds - browsers have ot calculate then render this, which does take some time. You might want to amalgamate the backgrounds a little or just make them simpler.
