I know you have. I thought I had done ok with that - but I guess not.
I guess - what is the best way to save them smaller and more efficiantly? I guess I am not grasping that.
what do you mean by:
Also I am a bit curious as why you are resizing the bg image with the page - it just distorts it.
I have made it longer for different pages because some of the pages need to be longer for more info - if that is what you are talking about…
I do not know what kind of computer this potential client has - but he said he got real fustrated and stopped looking. that concerns me. How many others have had that issue?
thank you

Very slow to upload
I assume you mean download
As I have said on numerous occasions your bg images are larger than they need to be
backgroundv1.jpg is 308k and grungebkgd.gif 265k
This page uses a resized version of your bg image - http://www.deltadzine.net/grw/
and I will be surprised if you can see a quality difference between the two - and it is a third of the file size of yours!
Also I am a bit curious as why you are resizing the bg image with the page - it just distorts it.
But this page shouldn’t be that slow as it still weighs in at less than 1Mb
But all your images should be optimised to get their size down - a bg image doesn’t need to be great quality anyway. Keep the larger filesizes/better quality images for the bits that matter.
