Images loading speed dependent on server?
<p>Let's say I'm loading several large images(>500kb) into my elements using php and js, i found that my loading speed takes quite awhile(ard 5 secs). </p>

<p>Last night i was browsing <a href="http://ringvemedia.com/beijing-photos" rel="nofollow">http://ringvemedia.com/beijing-photos</a></p>

<p>and the loading speed for the full background images is lightning fast. I check out the natural width for the background image is 1024px and the quality is pretty decent, so i think the image's size shouldn't be too small.</p>

<p>So how do i achieve similiar image-loading speed? I'm using a hostgator server btw.</p>
