And those iconoon ultimate files are what the button builder is pumping out.

Hmmm, 244kB per button plus its own dedicated css file, etc...
It seems those buttons come with a weight cost... :(

Wow if that's right about the buttons, I've never used the prog, but I wouldn't even have 244kb's for a bg image.

I've never used the button prog, as I've said below, but is there anyway you can batch edit the buttons and drop the file size, buttons should be no more than 20kb's at max. With images on the web if it's the focal point you can get away with using them at only about 80-85% quality, no one notices the differences.

I'm not entirely convinced that this is what's actually happening for each button. The pingdom reporting seems a bit inconsistent between 'size' and 'time spent' in this regard...

Looks like it's getting better. I ran it through Website Insight and your images are all under 100kb. The 244 seems to be from the fonts. That's odd. I don't get that in website insight.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Ya not quite sure about whether we can fully trust those readings.

Hey Gunsmoke not sure if you seen my post previously it kinda got list. I redid the layout framework see if this is better. I really like it because when it gets to smart phone size it drops to nothing but buttons.

"Hi Tom you are on my non-responsive website. Please see above. I am currently working on a new responsive website using the RLM."

Ooooops, darn - - wrong site. sorry bout that .:(

On the correct one the only problem I'm having on my phone is the menu on some of the subordinate pages -- but maybe you prob have not even done those yet.

I like that format a lot better! Good info I can skim over and contact info. Only 3 thumbs to get to the bottom. Very nice for phone in my opinion! :D
