 * Hi
 * Slideshow Nextgen in my Home page is loading the full original image (1,5 to 
   2,5 MB for each) so my webpage has reach the 42 MB and cleary is not good (before
   the update to the new version wp 3.8.1 all works well).
    I don’t understand why
   the Slideshow doesn’t load the thumbnail instead the original.
 * I’m using the latest version of Nextgen (2.0.57).
 * Anyone has the same issue, or how can I fix it?

 * [@dt1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dt1/) – I would recommend optimizing
   your images to a smaller size as the NextGEN Gallery Slideshow will always load
   the “original” images from the gallery you are using … and then depending on 
   your Slideshow settings the image may be re-sized again (via HTML).
 * You can re-size your images under Gallery > Manage Galleries … check the box 
   for the gallery you want to edit and then select the “Resize iamges” option under
   Bulk Actions and click Apply.
 * Thanks!
