| Well, your connection is not the fastest, but not lame. But your files are too large! Full document is 1254 KB. Your graphics are 1101 KB that is too heavy for web! |

Larger graphics usually jpeg since they can be compressed pretty well. Of course some of that has to do with the graphics software you use. I have about twice your upload speed and I try not to let any one graphic go over 12k. Not always successful, but I try.

| It is advisable to have your site size limit up to 300kb. All graphic included. Otherwise you'll lose lots of visitors with slow net speed. |
