Eight Seconds?

"Eight seconds", the report said, "You're too slow".

"Slow" in lingerie is GOOD! Heck the slower the better! As a matter of fact eight minutes is too dang fast! We want eight hours. Ok, so maybe 8 hours in lingerie is pushing it, unless of course you're on your honeymoon or a romantic get-a-way on a tropical island. Umm, that sounds nice!

Panic sets in! Eight seconds for a page load is slow! Eight seconds waiting on the Internet is like 30 minutes with a flaccid unit - UGH!

What to do? Take off pictures? Um no, how can you have a lingerie boutique without photos? Make them smaller? Heck no, we want them bigger! The web hosts around the world would probably be orgasmic if all web sites were void of images! Images slow things down. Did I say? "We like slow".

Shrink the store? Oh dear, no! It's hard enough, picking literally only a few of what we have cataloged. Ugh. Nope, that's not an option.

Images! Wait a minute ~ what you and I "see" on websites as words, often are images. It's kinda techy, how the whole thing works. Basically, if you want your words and buttons to be anything other than a BLAND text type, you have to tell every computer in the world - it's an image. And like magic, you have pretty words!

Hope we didn't loose anyone on that - ugh!

Our solution is to remove some "extra" buttons and fancy type - so fancy, the blogs don't even have it! If you visit our shop in the next week or so & it looks a bit cooky - blame it on the guy with the mili-second timer! We hope to look normal soon!

AND have time to blog about LINGERIE ;)

For our customers, very little will change ~ except we hope to be faster. Not that we really want to...
