Hi Mengfei

Nice looking site, well done! 🙂

Some of the larger images seemed quite slow to load, but that could be the connection my end, not yours!

Thanks.

Actually I notice the loading speed as well. I am asking my hosting provider to enable the GZIP but until now they still not doing that for me… Grr.r……

Nice clean site you have and it looks informative. I would optimise the images though because that would speed the load time by a small amount. One thing I didn’t like too much was the dotted border around some of the images, for me personally it sort of broke up the clean look of the site. Thats just a personal opinion though – well done 🙂

Site is looking good, nice, clear and easy to read/browse.

It is indeed a bit slow but you mentioned that before. I think you should pay some attention to the image describtions as most just show the image name itself. Or disable the describtions totally.

Thanks nigelta and bennitos for comment.

The dotted border is somehow requested by one of my management’s people and others are agreed with that. So cant help much on that. :p

About the loading issue, I tried to use GZIP to improve the performance but ends up with a blank page. Now I am still looking for solution on this. Please read this thread

Well, I believe this is because when the first time I subscribe with JA, I used to download all template into my hard drive, then I test every template one by one… But how it goes to that amount I really dont know. Also, I used flashget to download it…

If you use Flashget, and dont finish the download it automatic starts when you restart it, so i guess thats why.
Either that or you just had boring day and just wanted to fill up a hard drive with templates:p

Hahaha, nobody wanted to do that for nothing.

What I actually did is setup all JA template in my laptop’s web sever. So that whenever I go to do demo to potential client, I can easyly show them all available design. In case no internet access on that time.

PS: I am promoting JA templates anyway. :p

About the slow loading time of your site, i have noticed that some of the JA templates,even if they are lightweight they use super looooooooooong time on several sites/servers.
JA-Corona, JA-Barite, JA-Teline2 is some of them.

Sad to hear that. Since page loading consider one of the major web developement issue, is there any solution yet form JA? 😉

I generally find the sites on Joomla 1.5 are slower than 1.0 sites. Probably due to the ‘bulk’ of 1.5 🙂
