There is an image gallery but it loads all images at their native resolution upon rendering the page. This is painfully slow for most people across the region and taxing for their data budgets. We therefore suggest to precompute much smaller preview (or thumbnail) images, which will then be used for the main display in the gallery. Only after a user selected an image by clicking on it, should we load a higher resolution version.

Secondly, there needs to be some indicator that images are loading beyond the line-by-line appearance of individual images.

Dear @GeorgeBatrouni, thank you very much. The gallery seems to load much faster now. Does the link above mean that all changes are implemented on the live website? or is there a test version for us to approve before being deployed.
