Default Image Compression
Recently I did a website test speed test and the results said that my images were slowing site loading times. It was recommended that I compress them.
Anybody any tips were to start?
As the images are already uploaded, does the de-compression take place during site load?

Thanks..

What type of images are we talking about, different ones require different tactics.

Which site did you use to do the test, a link to the results would help.

Those are some horrible response times on the images. Where is this server located? What host is this? What system are you using for the front page?

Is it the vBCMS?

I have a couple of other sites to work on at the moment, but once I sort those, I can try to help you with yours.

I think most of the images are vBCMS, there are few in the forum areas..

I just did this as the first test and it seems that the images are standing out as the main issue.
Not so worried about it, just a niggle really.
The site does indicate a compression factor of which I was not aware of hence the thread.

I was guessing that some inline compression was necessary but only a guess as I haven't looked into it yet..

Cheers for the assist..

Didn't want to compress images anyway..
I put them through Photoshop and Save for Web then bring them down to an (visually) acceptable level before uploading them.

Which settings are you referring to?
