My image is large and loads slowly.  Is there anything I can do besides size it down?

HI,
Please go here
http://www.dahlingroup.com/
You'll see a large image that takes a few seconds to load. In the web, we know this is far too long. The site is about architecture and the images have to stay big. That being said, I've seen sites where the image sort of comes in pixelated at first, then slowly focuses. Can anyone tell me what technology they are using and where I could get started with that?
Thanks,
Stan

Using regular cable internet it takes 3 to 5 seconds for the page to load first time around or when a refreshed as a new image is called. It is less than a second once in my cache.
I'm going to guess and question a little here:
You are using flash on part of the page for the menu. How long does that take to load by itself?
You are also using php to rotate your images, so the server has to process that request for each time that an image is changed. Can you save those processing times by saving those on the server and so the request can access the already processed page. (There is a way to do that, but I forgot what it is called) Or can you use a different method of rotating the images that would be faster.
Since the bigPictureBox image that is being displayed is 405x930 px, what is the actual file size and quality of those images as well as the format of the files?
Using 'Save For Web' in Photoshop almost always gives smaller file sizes that regular 'Save'
Spliting the images up will only increase the total display time, but will allow a portion to show as the rest are called, but I don't think that will work for rotating as you are doing.

    I would do another SMC reset. If nothing changes you should take the computer in to an Apple store for a free diagnostic. You should make an appointment.

    The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
    However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.

    Hello antol1n1,
    Sorry to hear your MacBook Pro is not charging or powering on.  Sometimes a System Management Controller reset can help with the following charging and power issues:
    Power
    The computer doesn't respond to the power button when pressed.
    A portable Mac doesn't appear to respond properly when you close or open the lid.
    The computer sleeps or shuts down unexpectedly.
    The battery does not appear to be charging properly.
    The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
    To reset the System Management Controller on your MacBook Pro (with a built-in battery) , you can follow these steps:
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    You can find more information in the full article here:

  • Modified Files on FCPX... Random files in event folder(that I used to make a multicam clip) become modified and unusable. Is there anything i can do to prevent this?

    Since I upgraded to Mavericks, every time I create a multicam clip on FCPX, random files(that were used to make the multicam clip) become modified and unusable(in High Quality). Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
    I've tried transcoding, creating proxy media, creating optimized media, plus I've tried none of the above. Thing is, no matter what I do, it still happens(to random files) "after" I make the multicam clip. Is there a setting or something that was accidentally enabled by me or the upgrade?
    BTW: Everything seems to work fine when 'playback' is set to proxy. The problem is when I'm ready to export and switch 'playback' to High Quality.

    I had this same issue! But fixed it by going into the finder, finding the event, and delted the files out of the "High Quality Media." My project then refreshed to normal and no red modified file slides. The cool part: I din't even shut fcpx down to mess with the files in the finder. It all worked like a charm.
    Good luck!

  • My TV has a combined HDMI/DVI slot, and says I can't connect my TV and Mac. Is there anything I can buy to fix this?

    I have been looking all over the net to see if there was something that I could buy to troubleshoot this problem, and I've had no luck with this. I'm running OSX on my 2007 iMac, and know what I would need to get to connect my computer to my TV. The only thing is, the TV has a combined HDMI/DVI. I looked on Samsungs website, and it said that because of this, I can't connect the 2. "
    Many of Samsung's 2005 and 2006 model TVs have a combined HDMI/DVI input jack. You cannot use the combined HDMI/DVI jack to connect your 2005 or 2006 model Samsung TV to your computer's DVI video output jack. If your Samsung TV has an HDMI only jack, you cannot use the HDMI jack to connect your Samsung TV to your computer's DVI video output jack. Samsung's 2005 and 2006 TVs do not support DVI to HDMI computer video connections."
    I am at a complete loss right now and have a feeling that there is nothing I can do about it. I do have the Roku connected to my TV, and bc I don't have the HDMI spot, we have to use the RGB slots to connect it. The Roku does have a HDMI slot to connect it to a TV with one, and even thought that maybe I could connect something to that to connect my computer to my TV. I've pretty much decided that if I can't get an answer in the Mac community, then there isn't going to be a way for me to connect the two. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!  - Patrick

    You tv probably has 2 seperate inputs, DVI and HDMI. You will need one these adapters if you want to connect via HDMI however on a machine as old as yours neither the  HDMI or DVI will only output video, not audio.

  • My iphone 4s goes back to home screen during text and apps. Is there anything I can do to prevent it from doing that?

    Can you tell me how to prevent my phone from crashing and returning to the home screen while I am in the middle of a text or in an app?

    When was the last time you powered your iPhone off and on?
    Try a reset instead which is similar to a computer restart. Press and hold the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.

    Have yu tried the standard fixes:

    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    The music sync is how you got the music from the computer to the ipod in the first place.
    You cannot sync it from the ipod to the computer as I explained in the previous post, unless it is itunes purchased music.

  • Whenever I try to upload photos into iPhoto, they load but when importing it just stops a picyure or two into it and then just sits there. I can't stop the import so I have to shut off my camera when it is importing and start again. Help?

    As a test  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Tru importing from your camera to it and to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • Once combine file, it is too large to email. Is there a way to reduce the size of the file?

    Combined files and now it is too large to send. Is there a way to reduce the size of the converted file in Adobe?

    Hi yodonna,
    Adobe Reader doesn't allow you to reduce the size of a PDF file, as Acrobat does. But, you could upload that file to your Acrobat.com account, and create an anonymous link to it using Adobe Send. Then, you could send that link via email. You can access Adobe Send at https://cloud.acrobat.com/send. The Create an Anonymous Link feature doesn't require that you have an Adobe Send subscription.
