I think I have a 33.something modem...not sure, but it is reasonalby fast.
This advice would work for others who have webpages as well (I learned this from a webpage designer).
First, crop pictures "tight". Nothing like clicking on a picture and the first 30 seconds it is loading up the "sky" of the picture. Unless it is noteworthy to the picture...crop it out and save time as well as space.
On size...it takes along time to wait for pictures to come in and "load" when they are HUGE. Best thing (like Stefan does) is to have a small picture pop-up...and if you want to see a larger picture...give them an option to click on it to make it larger.
Just some pointers in this "hurry up and wait" world.
==============================
: Thanx for the advice. I'll make sure and take note of it. What speed is your modem? Also, if you prefer to see more pics of the two door I can post more of those. Last thing, I'm getting a new car in the yard soon, I'll let you know as soon as it comes in.
