Hello @
aussieant32,
This is some information for anyone who is interested. The lightbox (image viewer) loads thumbnails as they are clicked. It does NOT preload them.
If images were preloaded, the lightbox would display images instantly. But here is an example of what issues that will cause.
Thread has 50mb of images in total.
Now: Thread is loaded and each image is loaded when clicked. This means there is a delay in the image loading, but the thread loads up quickly.
Preload: You must download 50mb of data before the thread displays. This will cause the thread to take 2 - 3 minutes before anything can be viewed.
Thanks.
