Image Optimising

The need for speed.

For those who have seen my site, you would have noticed it contains some big images.

Lets cover the 2 big ones.

• The header image
• The background image

So the size they were being hosted on my site:

• Header = 226kb
• background = 658kb

Having played around with a number of tools to get them smaller without a noticeable loss in quality I discovered:

TinyPNG – Compress AVIF, WebP, PNG and JPEG images

Free online image optimizer for faster websites! Reduce the file size of your AVIF, WEBP, JPEG and PNG images while preserving the image quality.

Ignore the png in the title, it converts jpg files as well.

After using this site my new image sizes are:

• Header = 59.2kb
• Background = 130.5kb

This is a substantial decrease in size, and in turn a very noticeable performance boost.

thanks, It helps to decrease the loading time.
