Reducing CiviCRM Images and Loading Times
August 25, 2010, 07:58:37 pm
I have a Drupal 6 site and when using the Optimization Tool at http://websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ It identifies that there are numerous graphics loaded for CiviCRM at my drupal homepage even though CiviCRM isn't my homepage.

I was wondering if there was a way to reduce these images or to eliminate them and replace them with text to minimize the loading time. Anyone tried this?

Are they really loaded, or does the Optimization Tool assume they’d be loaded just because they’re in CiviCRM’s stylesheet?

Hi,

Not sure the browsers download all the images referenced in the css, contrary to what websiteoptimization seems to think.

This being said, we can probably still optimise better by using more sprites. Do you know how to do it and willing to give it a go ?
