I’ve always wanted to have full resolution large photos of famous trumpet players…
I’ve used topaz labs to clean and enhance. 381 photos came out to 1.21gb
Used squash to bring it down to 570mb
BEFORE I upload this - Claude said - there is no lazy loading option - but it was mentioned as possibly coming in the forum..
@dan coming soon?
(I had 280 small small photos at about 22k each)
Guess this is too much lol
Will shrink and reduce quality - shame though..
Might split across 8 pages of 50 photos…

570mb of anything on one page is a lot
Not sure where or when this was mentioned on the forum, however, I have added a ticket to investigate adding lazy loading to the Gallery component. Hopefully we can add that in the near future
Gave up… photos in some cases have blurred faces or double faces
Reverted back to 5.1 mb 280 small small small photos…
Maybe try another day - too much time on this…

@MichaelDroste would something like this work for you?
I have just the stock gallery not the pro - your very kind to post…
I’ll look at this again when the ticket gets filled…
No worries
Thanx again!

this is in the Gallery component that ships with Elements
Thanx @ben - doesn’t seem to be in the 3.0.7 beta
took another pass in the light of day made them max 800 width max 800 tall and 90% jpg
came out to 46mb - a little large but I’m ok with it…

It’s available in Elements 3.0.8 that just shipped

Amazing!
