I saw this come through on Django snippets and read the GWT page. It's an interesting idea. It's similar to the idea of concatenating JS or CSS files, but with images.
I was a little disappointed to see how the demo had to load the 1 big image file before you see any images. I think most people are used to pages loading incrementally and may be put off by waiting for all graphics to snap in at once. One thought I had to counter that would be to group small images together, then medium sized images, then large images. Depending on how many images your website actually uses, this would need to be tuned, but maybe it would help alleviate the wait. Also, grouping small images used on every page, leaving out images for a single page, would help caching, so consecutive views of the same website can pull in the cached copy of small images but pull in a separate image file for images specific to the page being viewed. Anyway, it's an interesting idea and nice to see an implementation. -Rob --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
