Ah so that's the reason. 120kB seems to be huge. What is using so much space? The background image plus the logo take up 57kB, so there are still about 69kB left to explain. Is it because of the (uncompressed?) gifs? Is there any alternative to gifs? How about reducing the size of the background image? At 2/3 of the original size at quality 0.65 it shrinks to 17274 bytes (attached). > So on an ISDN line it should take about > > 122880 Bytes / 64 Kbit/s * 8 = 15 sec > > Regarding that the background picture which should be the > latest file to load is 50860 Bytes in size.
