A website?
-
CRAP okay i changed my website from cardesign-rayochoa.com to ray-ochoa.webs.com LESS TO WRITE

Ray, just an advice on images. If you upload an image to be displayed in a certain size, the html code can display a bigger image smaller than the "real" image is but it's a waste of bandwidth as well as loading time. So if the images are displayed in 328x295 but the file is 800x552 (which is the case with your website), it will take to load as long as if it were displayed in the original (880x552) size but you can only see the "smaller" version.
So if you do that, resize your images to smaller and upload them that way instead (or link to the bigger version somewhere). Loading time will multiply.

you mean for the album?
-
No. for the Homepage. I wouldn't even have looked if it hadn't ben suspicious for loading too slow. Go to Properties in the context menu for the image (see attached - in Hungarian)
-
I put a direct link from photobucket. i changed it to this one green car. idk if its better though, all the computers i go to my site with have fast connection
-
I seem to have issues when people link to photobucket. Long load times, even for small images, and may times, images fail to load altogether. Maybe it's just Safari.
-
I have many issues with such image sharing sites as well (Imageshck being even worse). Sometimes I don't even click on a posted thumbnail in the Gallery because my driving license expires by the time it loads.
-
The image still takea while to load...better, but still draggy. If you're having a slot that's 214x428 then that's the size the image ought to be. Your 400x800 pics are taking almost 4 times longer to load than necessary (twice the size in both directions).
I too don't like Photobucket or Imageshack. It's also the case that sourcing your images from there means you are dependent on them...if they're down, your site is useless, even if it's having no problem with the actual hosting. If it's possible to stick all your images into an images folder...maybe keeping the general site graphics and gallery images separate...I'd do that instead. -
domains & hosting is cheap, ray-ochoa.com is (still) free:
for generating content, get a WebCMS, e.g.:
http://www.wordpress.com/
http://www.joomla.org/tons of free and commercial templates avail.
have fun,
Norbert
