    Hi there,
    I really enjoy working with your theme template, and the website looks amazing also thanks to this template. Although, I came across a few things that I have questions about:
    – In some browsers the home page slider stacks up, or doesn’t show up quickly (is has like a 2″ load time and then it changes from stacked to the normal slider)

    – Google Website Speed Test showed some causes of a slow loading homepage. I compressed and resized all my own pictures again. But the ones of Hashone are left and almost 1mb per picture. I found them in my back-end, but how do you suggest to compress these png files? Would it harm anything on the homepage? It’s about these files:
    themes/hashone/images/prev.png could save 942B (77% reduction).
    themes/hashone/images/next.png could save 873B (76% reduction).
    themes/hashone/images/overlay.png could save 868B (91% reduction).
    themes/hashone/images/arrow.png could save 865B (90% reduction).

    – Also Google advises: Approximately 38% of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly in the HTML.

    Would you stimulate looking into this? I was wondering this and asking you before I put a lot of time in it without really know the bad/good/speed effects yet.

    The website url is: nlcfitnesscentre.com

    Thanks a lot!

    >> Usually, jquery only work after the site is fully loaded hence it take some second of the slider to take into its actual working position.

    >> You can find these images inside the theme folder. You can optimize them into lower size and then and re upload them back

    >> These are additional optimization work and you can make use of some plugins for it to some extent or hire some professional.
