    Optimizing your CSS is a good way to increase the performance.

    Admin Panel --> Display --> Colors --> CSS --> Optimize CSS (yes)

    Hello Kami-sama,
    You seem to use a lot of images. Try to compress them. Smile

    Hello Mimoza!
    Thank you or the suggestion. I will maybe try it with background image, but or everything else tinypng I do not really like. It messes wit quality and it as a lot of restrictions. The image hosting page I am using right now is very reliable and has big storage and contains image quality Smile
