Congratulations, the final product looks sleek.

I have a comment about the blog post itself though. Your page took 90 seconds to load on my gigabit internet connection. The two culprits are your high resolution images of the product DSC_0031.jpg and DSC_0014.jpg. Each image is around 3MB. I would strongly recommend recompressing these down to something like 200KB or less.



Hacker News should automatically add the size in MB for each submission. This would a) act as a warning for mobile users (the BBC article about dark matter on the front page at the moment killed chrome on my phone because it has too many images) and b) acts as a wall of shame.


Bad ghost blog! Very bad! Thanks for heads up mgraczyk, now a smoother 40kb of viewing pleasure.


Thanks, we assumed our blog engine compressed them for us.
