On this page: http://headachecomix.com/about http://headachecomix.com/about, the image headache1big.jpg is 1584 x 2153 and has a size of 3,594,579 bytes. This takes a long time to download on a slow connection. This is definitely bad UX, but I seriously doubt it was intentional.
There’s deliberately bad aesthetic, which I don’t mind, but this is bad design because it wastes bandwidth. The image could be resized to the display size without losing its visual impact, and it would save users a lot of time.
- surround 6y agoThe archive has numerous images of this size http://headachecomix.com/archive http://headachecomix.com/archive
- claes-magnus 6y agoA valid point. Will fix! The archive is intended to be like so by request. The idea would be caching. They count on people to clicking on all the covers. If it's this is the case or not, I don't know. But their target groups is very narrow on the other hand. This 'argumentation' is not valid though in the case with the picture at 'about'. And that's my fault. I will fix this. So yes, you're right. One could argue the same is true for the images at the 'about' page. But yeah...
