OK, not a Web guru...but I know enough not to put lots of full size/high res images on a Web site, let alone on the first page. Too bad, I am a big Barcia fan and would really like to see it, but it is taking FOREVER to load.

I posted the article on the homepage and didnt even bother to look, until reading this post...damn! its bad...real bad, and i have a really good connection.

I wonder if all hookit sites are like that? never really visited them much.

Yep I noticed the same thing. Marc_Honda must have a GigE cable that goes directly to hookit.

The other really bad thing (from a photographers perspective) is that you have access to all the high-res images on the site.

most of the pictures and links loaded just fine for me. but i do see where a decent handful of the pictures further down the page were taking a while to load.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback. There was some optimization things we did to fix load speeds on slower connections since its very content heavy. Should be good now.

Hey there. It loads fine for me, however, since you asked for input, on the ipad, as well as on larger monitors it loads as a very narrow strip in the middle of the screen. The effect of the display given the narrow width was one of confusion. The concept is cool, but, for me personally, it was too cluttered for me to take the effort to want to figure it out. Ok, so, I am probably stupid, but, since you asked.

Take a look on your tablets now - we improved for those and will have a mobile site soon.
