How do I speed up a 'slow page' without losing pictures?

[Guest]

I have designed a one page website andwant to publish it to the net. My
'Reports' page tells me that my one page is a 'slow page' and will take 250
secs to download. The page contains four images and text, it also has a
themed layout. How do I speed up my 'slow page' without changing the layout
and losing images or content?

Hi,
Best if you could upload the page and let us see it. In the absense of that
I'm going to guess your images need optimizing - do you have a graphics
program such as Fireworks, Photoshop, Paint Shop etc?

"one page website"? That means the entire site's contents are on a single
page? Ugh.

Post a link to this page. There may be nothing you can do with that being
your approach.

#1 Optimize the images- check if another image type or
compression is better (jpg, png, gif).
#2 Theme type and application method. I have not used
themes, so I really can't help you

Hi Murray,
Thanks for the info. This 'one page' is a notification of a major website
coming on-line. So while it's designed we're looking for responses from
potential clients. There'll be a lot of links!

So, how about a link, then?

Thanks Tom,
That seems the general consensus, but as a website virgin, how does one
optimize images - by numbers, the online help isn't very clear on that point.

First thing you need to do is respond to Murray's request for a URL so we
can look at the page.
