 * My website is [http://www.nkscouting.com](http://www.nkscouting.com)
 * At the end of some of my articles, I have 5-10 150 x 150 photos, which are supposed
   to greatly enlarge when you click each one.
 * However, it takes 2 minutes to “turn the page” when an enlarged
    photo is enlarged.
   It’s like a book where it takes 2 minutes to turn each page.

 * I’m sorry, shamraldewan and esmi, but I don’t know enough about websites to know
   what css sprint or the Twenty Thirteen theme
    are. But feel free to give me more
   information, and please tell me word for word what this means. Thanks!

 * It means changing to a default theme to see if the problem is with your theme.
   We did this a while back –

 * Please do not create duplicate topics. It makes it harder to support you when
   you do.
