url(images/gradients/titleimage1.gif) repeat-x top left

when i click on my forum, it loads a color before it loads url(images/gradients/titleimage1.gif) repeat-x top left

is there a way to access the file with out url link, i think the url delays the load up..

is there a way to set the color, so it loads instantly?

please visit my site, 24hourforum.com and click on threads, etc.. you will see a purple color is loaded before url(images/gradients/titleimage1.gif) repeat-x top left

Colours will get loaded first because the browser doesn't have to fetch any additional information (i.e. the images) when it has got the images it then loads them. This is default behaviour and happens on all sites.
