Slow loading site: CI or bad coding?

It's loading decently fast for me... less than a second when viewing an actual piece of artwork, about 3-4 seconds on the home page.


Are you using legimimate thumbnails for these images, or just scaling down a larger version via HTML?

I think it may just be image downloading that is taking so long or possibly where the servers are located.
