Dear all,

Is there any tool that will tell me the total KB of any page and how long that page will take to load with various ISP speeds? I am not really sure what is ok / too big for a picture file size or page total KB.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Download the Web Developer toolbar for Firefox - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60. Check that option out under Information > View Document Size. That should do it.

Thanks I had the toolbar already but had missed ‘View Document Size’. :shifty: Anyway I have just checked a few random pages such as newspapers and I think they were all under 800 KB.

Anyway since images on a web page are restricted in file size, can I say that there isn’t much point is using an SLR camera to take these pictures, I mean after being compressed for use on a web page would the superiority of an SLR over a compact camera be reduced to little or nothing or can people still tell the difference?
