Hi Guys – Is it possible for some guys on larger monitors ( above 1280 res) and especially on Macs - To check: 1. The performance of the site ( transistions, general speed , any lag etc) 2. On larger resolutions – There should be no gaps between the menu items ( on smaller monitors this is fine, but apparnetly oin larger ie 1600 rez, there suddenly appear to be spaces) PLEASE NOTE \*\*\*\*\*\* The site is CMS driven , currently there is only one page in the " Our work" section – “Elements Advertising and marketing” page. (if you click any other link in “our work” youll get bugs. **[SIZE=“5”]NEW LINK [/SIZE]\*\*\*\*[SIZE=“5”] [Click click](http://test.kemistry.co.za/index.htm)[/SIZE]** Any help on this VERY MUCH APPRECIATED :):to: ---

I think its just the sheer size of the images that causes the laggyness. Other than the pic transitions it seemed quick. ---

> [@G](#): > > pixi…what are the file sizes of the images you are using in the background??? Bout 60 - 100 K ( but the client controls these from the CMS) We have tried make the BG load only after all the rest of the site content for each page is loaded. Does ANYONE on a Mac running Safari have any feedback PLEASE!!! Flash version, Safari version, OS version, and performance on laoding speed, animation / transisiton speed and general Lag, ( And where) ??? Im not interested in the design, layout etc … This is an experiment :):)🙂 ---

var Computer = iMac 17", 1.9 GHz PowerPC G5 var OS = Mac OS X 10.4.5 var RAM = 1.5 GB var Safari = 2.0.3 var Flash = 8 Computer+OS+RAM+Safari+Flash = Laggy! Especially the textscrolling, try turning off the easing. I mean, do you really need the text to be scrolling, if it totally kills the flow of the entire site. That way you won’t have to mask and embed your text either, which also would improve the overall performance dramatically. Please let me know if you need to know anymore. ---

Macro Thanks mate Appreciated! – I always have an issue with Flash + Safari + Mac - Im sure its either Safari / the flash player for MAC (if anyone know of a solution or what im doing wrong???) The textscrolling / easing is going to bew done away with 🙂
