Smaller images worked flawlessly. I'd use tools like <a href="http://www.obviousidea.com/en/windows-software/light-image-resizer/" rel="nofollow">http://www.obviousidea.com/en/windows-software/light-image-resizer/</a> to compress the images a bit and to shrink them to a reasonable filesize of 100kb to 500kb. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/image-sometimes-do-not-load-in-lightboxprettyphoto#post-80153 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 22:52:07 +0000 coflo 80153@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>So it seems sometimes on some computers the photos in any gallery (product, portfolio or blog) will fail to load when the lightbox is activated.</p> <p>By looking at the web console in firefox I can see that the images are retrieved perfectly fine, but some how the lightbox never loads them into view (the loading spin wheel just keeps spinning). Sometimes they never load; other times they load almost at random, even though the request for the photo has been made and retrieved by the document many, many seconds prior.</p> <p>Sometimes i recieve a JS error for "typeError: mismatch.... on line 68 of the prettyPhoto.js file".</p> <p>You can take a look at the site here - <a href="http://www.soulsignatureoriginal.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.soulsignatureoriginal.com</a> </p>
