It's also not correct, at least for some folks. You are, of course, entitled to write your website any way you like it, but the 'heavy stuff' to which you refer means that people like me won't dare come and 'explore'. Living where I do, I have precisely two options for internet access, dial-up and metered satellite access. From the size given in a previous message, just loading your front page will cost me almost 0.5% of my total daily bandwidth allowance. If your sort of attitude prevails, I confidently expect that at some future point I will have to go back 20+ years and resume using Lynx as my browser.
