    My background image in my website takes a few seconds to appear when opening the site, and that kind of leaves a negative first impression to visitors.

    So, how can I make the image lighter (in file size) so that when opening the website it appears faster - and not compromise the quality of the image?

    Hi,

    Find a prominent color from the image and use that as color. Also use the image as background. You can attain it by using css as

    background : #colorvalue url(imageurl);

    This can give better impression.

    There are other options too. You can post the url here, so i can try for a better solution.

    Best Regards,

    Nirmal
