Lightbox your way to a quicker load
By Dave Smith Wednesday October 31, 2007

I like big photos. I like them to fill as much of the space on the screen as possible. On an individual post the page size by K isn’t too bad with large images. But when there are 5 to 10 posts on the home page all with images on them, it can bloat the size of your home page and make it very slow to load.
