Photo stream overload
Hi Marco, everyone,
I have been using the free version of DM for a few months now, but I have only now had a chance to look under the hood and work out why it is performing so poorly. I have over 700 photos on my blog and the javascript "Photo Stream" - which looks really cool - just isn't coping. It will sit there for 5 minutes or more, depending on my connection, grabbing hundreds of image icons, but not displaying them, and crucially, not displaying the main posted photo. I don't think anybody has the patience hang around, as my traffic has totally dropped off since installing it.
I need to limit the scope of the images it looks up (I think the last 30 or so would be plenty) or move to another template because, frustratingly, the photo stream is not implemented as a DIV in the normal html template and instead is buried away with all the other page behaviours so I can't just disable it.
Any suggestions?
