First website in XXP5 loads very slow
Hi everybody, I'm creating my first XXP5 website, but although it loads ok (a bit slow) in my browsers, the client complains it's loading very slow on her computers. Here's the URL http://www.legumesetcompagnie.fr/index.htm The background image is in a low resolution. Can anybody explain to me why this is happening ? :o

Hi Marcia,
What is your client's connect speed?
The website loaded in about 4 seconds for me. I'm on a 1.5MB dsl connection.

Re: First website in XXP5 loads very slow
0.751 Sec. here - 8Mb connection
MouseOvers are very slow though, several seconds to pop up
Nice site :-)
Re: First website in XXP5 loads very slow
I download the page and found that all the image files are in PNG format
I guess you didnt tweak the export image format in your page editing,
change the exported photo images to jpg format might reduce 100-200kb
of the page

Yes, that was it ! Forgot all about that :o Thanks zz !
My client has a slow internet connection, but now the page loads
a lot faster :D
Re: First website in XXP5 loads very slow
The problem with converting every image to jpg (no transparency) is the quality's not as good and in the process a lot of your text has become just part of an image and therefore not searchable by Search Engines. I don't think the savings were that great either Marcia, the site downloaded very quickly previously.

0.647 Seconds but rollovers are still very, very slow
