preloading images

[Laprodo]

That solution seems to be smarter, it doesn't require extra sql-statemants and reuse existing variables of pixelpost:

I just figured how to preload for those using the secret addon too. I know nuts about scripting but it seems to work hehe

<script type="text/javascript">
if (document.images) 
{
   img1 = new Image();
   img1.src = "images/<PRELOAD_IMAGE_NAME>";
   img1.src = "images/o_<PRELOAD_IMAGE_NAME>";
}
</script>

assuming "o" is the prefix of your secret images (which is the default from that addon, unless you changed it)

any idea how I can preload the secret image for the very first image?
since the <PRELOAD_IMAGE_NAME> only loads the "previous" image.

You are on the right track, but you don't need the <PRELOAD_IMAGE_NAME>.
Just use

<script type="text/javascript">
if (document.images) 
{
   img1 = new Image();
   img1.src = "images/o_<IMAGE_NAME>";
}
</script>

You don't need the Image Pre-Loader Addon since you are only interested in the actual images name (<IMAGE_NAME>)
