slow roll over images

[foker500]

i've created a site on our company LAN (webserver is on my box) and sometimes (almost always) when I pull up the site the images (1 kb gif) that I've used for some of the buttons don't load when the page initially appears. i get a bunch of red X's where the images should be but if i hit refresh a couple of times the images ultimately load. i should mention that some of the images are roll over images and the others are simply small images inserted into a table used as buttons, some are just images but they are all 1kb gifs.

is there anything i can do to make the all of the images appear on the initial load?

thanks

Preload the images and try using this technique

....might want to save your larger JPGs as "Progressive Scan=3" to ease out on visitors patence during the load
