css delay on loading page

[judkels]

I'm new to cms made simple and just trying out importing templates and css. All seems fine except that I notice that when i open a page there is a delay of a few seconds while the page is displayed without styling added then it corrects itself. What am I doing wrong  - I have the images in the images folder and so on.
Thanks
Judy

Hi Judy, welcome here

It might be a server side problem...
Do you have a link for us? Not much to do with out it...

What I did was put wamp on my pc to experiment with the cms made simple. Then I followed some instructions and imported DragonFly template and css. I attach these files in case you notice something wrong. Iput the images as instructed into the images folder and they seem to work ok.
Thanks for replying

Okay, you are working local at the moment.
It is still possible the computer is to slow to run the website, but...

Please put a copy of your System Information here, you find it in the admin.
Perhaps we can find there some leads why.

But in both a localhost or a webserver the CMS should perform fine.

First thing I would do is put the images in uploads, like in uploads/fly folder then change your css to url(uploads/fly/image.jpg)...

Any pointers greatfully received
