This message was sent from: Features http://forums.oscommerce.com/viewtopic.php?p=183259#183259 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Whether 15-20k is acceptable will depend entirely on how many photos per page are loading, and how big the other graphics on the page are. Let's not forget that the background, the buttons, the box tops, ANY other graphics on the page adds to the page load time. Add to that flash files, audio files, banners........ And there are still folks with 56k connections that don't really get 56k, it's more like 28-40k. I would love it if the whole world had P4's with high speed cable modems (my current cable service pretends to be a 56k dialup at times). But they don't, there are still 386's with dialup and AOL and there is WebTV and a host of other people not using ideal (from our point of view) equipment. We can't please everyone, but thumbnails are important and dynamically generated isn't always the answer. Get to know your graphics program and ftp better ;)
