Hi,
ever since I've made web pages, I've come across sites whose images load mega fast; much faster than ordinary sites. Its as if they have some sort of engine powering them down the line. Does anyone know how they do it? I save as small gifs or jpegs but I still don't get the fast loading pics.

Thanks,
silverswim

>>much faster than ordinary sites

some reasons:
1. it may be that the bandwidth the server has is high
2. number of user requests may be low
