hmm...that'd odd, The wheels arn't moving...but you'd think they would, because by lengthening the exposure, would they move?

oh hey guys, sorry about the big pics on the first page. They are large in size and they will take some time to load.

anyone on 56k shouldnt go to my site, i am an ass that way.

Dood, I'm on cable and it's still fucking slow as hell.

Use jpeg, not gif. gif wasn't made for that anyways.

Your file size could be 50k instead of 200k.

DaFonz 11-14-2004 03:04 AM

Ok.. dood.. you have good pictures, but your site is stupid.

a) Stop using gifs for photos. You could cut down your file sizes by at least half by using jpeg.

b) You don't need to post 600k files on your site. It's actually bad for you if someone decides to rip off your work. Use compression. Compression is gooooodddddddd

PS: Nice pics... I got as far as loading the thumbnails and one of the blown up shots before deciding that your site was stupid.

Domani 11-14-2004 09:14 AM

yeah i got cable too

made me feel like i m back on dial up! hehehe

Walperstyle 11-14-2004 04:43 PM

Gif? interesting, I thought only the thumbnails were gif

You've got a great site in terms of design! and some very nice photos!

however to beat a dead horse, you're not creating proper gif's and jpg's for your site. all your images, even at that size, should be no bigger then 150k. on average your images were 550k +. Simply terrible by the laws of site design.....slow site means you'll lose your viewers because its too slow to load. web people are the most impatient. if it takes more then 2 seconds to load, it's too late they've moved on.

now, the way to make your files smaller in file size is to use the "save for web" feature in photoshop.
-open an image >> 'file' >> 'save for web'.
-change the view to '2 Up' by clicking the tab in the upper left of this window. you should now see your image twice side by side. one is going to be your original, and the other is to preview what your image will look like as you change the settings.
-Now select 'JPEG medium' in the drop down list of 'settings'.
-if you move the 'quality' bar, you'll notice the file size of your image (in kb) changes at the bottom of your image. i typically save my images around '55', play around and find a setting so that your image end up being around 100k. note-the same thing can be done with your gif menu buttons, except they should be around 100 bytes.


The font you used is hard to read at small sizes. i'd suggest making the font bigger, or change fonts.
