I'm using cataloger for a website but both me and my client think that the images loads too slow. First all the text-links apears and then the images start to show one by one.

Is there, please, a way to speed up the load time for images in cataloger?

ForgotĀ  to mention that all images are optimized for web. 300pixel x 400pixel and average image size is 30kb.

I really hope that someone has an idea/solution for this.

The page is loading 65 images.

The old website with no CMS had no problem in showing all the images very fast. Therefore my client don't understand why it has to bee like thisĀ  :(

Has no one experienced that the cataloger is loading the images too slow?

In my html source I get this: after I load the page. Not sure how to read that.

Is there any one who can tell me what to do or try to get the images i cataloger to load quicker.

How many seconds? 5 minutes, 2 minutes, about 70 seconds (this is normal for 65x30KB: 65 calling GET delay+45KB/s + page)
Reduce KB of images (better reduce widthxheight, 300x400 are much) or number of images per page

Sorry have to explaine my self better - the big images that apear when you click the thumbnails are 300x400 pixel. The thumbnails (the 65 images) created by cataloger is only 83x100 pixel.

I'm thinking of an other structure,with more sub categories to reduce the number of images per page as you also suggests.
