Sienna,

I guess I am not sure what you are looking for? This site has minimal

graphics and it'a ll vector based so naturally it will load quick. As for

you first question what exactly are you looking for?

I need help with this too.  I design my movies from my ISP.. every site I

view ( I do check out all the sites I see come accross the threads) are

seen from a full T1 connection.  The movies look great but when I go home

and view on a normal connection, everyone's sites load fast EXCEPT for the

sites I designed and tested on a T1 connection.


I get complaints that my sites don't stream.


Any URL's out there to show how to properly stream or speed up?  The site I

envy is www.eye4u.com  Even on a normal connection their site streams

great.  They appear to use a lot of graphics but yet it loads fast.
