How to fix lag between images in Fotorama?

So I have a series of images in my image slider from Fotorama. My problem is that
there is a very slight delay when transitioning between different slides for the first time, I imagine because my images are all quite large. Is there any way to easily fix this through javascript or html/css? I read their documentation regarding 'lazy loading' but I'm not sure if that is really applicable for what I want to do. Any advice would be appreciated.
<div class="fotorama"
data-margin="0"
data-transition="slide"
transition-duration="0ms"
data-keyboard="true"
data-swipe="true"
data-click="false"
data-width="100%"
data-height="95%"
data-ratio="3/2">
<img src="images/bgardenflower2.jpg">
<img src="images/yellowflower.jpg">
<img src="images/lushflower.jpg">
<img src="images/flowerbee.jpg">
<img src="images/fly.jpg">
<img src="images/bgardenflower1.jpg">
<img src="images/toad.jpg">
<img src="images/algae.jpg">
<img src="images/lushscape1.jpg">
<img src="images/westvirginia1.jpg">
<img src="images/westvirginia2.jpg">
<img src="images/duskbridge.jpg">
<img src="images/lighthouse.jpg">
</div>

Using photoshop you can save images in webformat, so the images size will be reduced and load quickly...

How to put the ALT-value of an image into a variable in javascript or jquery

I’ve made a cardspread program that is based on the source of the image. It works allright, but it is loading slowly, because now 78 different cards are loaded. I like to speed up the loading and I thought I needed an extra item per DIV. So I added an ALT-tag to each image. Like this:
<div id="kaart1">
<alt=kaart14.jpg>
<img src="images/kaart1.jpg" width="110" height="180" onclick="showDiv(event)>
</alt=kaart14.jpg>
</div>
Now I need only 1 image to load 78 times, which is faster. The problem which I am facing now is that I want to read the alt value into a variable (in this case: kaart14.jpg).
I’ve tried :
$('.status').click(function() {
var status = $(this).attr('alt');
});
But that stays empty. Does anyone have a suggestion how to solve this in Javascript or jQuery?

First, there is no <alt> tag. It is used as alternative to <img>. The value is displayed if the image is not loaded.
It is just plain text. If you put a url there, it will just display the url and not the image itself.
Eg:
<img src="myphoto.jpg" alt="This is my photo">
There is no performance gain if you use alt or not, but you definitely SEO

Your alt attribute should be like
<div id="kaart1">
<img src="images/kaart1.jpg" alt="kaart Image" width="110" height="180" onclick="showDiv(event)>
</div>
alt is an attribute of the img tag,its not a tag itself.And as #Bergi said,the alt attribute will not be an another image.It may be the description.

I’m using a multilanguage script to change from lanquage. Now I’m having troubles in using by the image

I am new for script and jQuery
I’m using a multilanguage script to change from language. Now I'm having troubles to change from a language by using the image,
<img src="/flags/us.png" alt="en_EN" />
<img src="/flags/it.png" alt="it_IT" />
<img src="/flags/fr.png" alt="fr_FR" />
here after i dnot know how to use this image tag
what i want from this image tag , when i am click this image i want the alt value of corresponding image click.
Hoe to get it...
its possible or else give any other idea
thanks
Kumar

Put a class in your anchor and try this
<img src="/flags/us.png" alt="en_EN" />
<img src="/flags/it.png" alt="it_IT" />
<img src="/flags/fr.png" alt="fr_FR" />
$('a.lang img').click(function(){
var alt=$(this).attr('alt');
});

<a class='lang_link' href="#"><img src="/flags/us.png" alt="en_EN" /></a>
Assuming your links have a class of lang_link, you can look inside the link to see what language should be chosen.
$('.lang_link').click(function(){
var lang = $(this).find('img:first').attr('alt');
});

Image thumbnail is not loading and onmousehover my images move up when hovering over an image?

?I am having an issue with a website i uploaded to test. They all work work fine when they are checked locally in Dreamweaver cs6 but when uploaded they do this, Roll over the images you will see the problem, when hovering over Texas longhorn image there is a problem and the Michigan state image isn't loading Anyone see my error.
Here is the code that matters Thanks for any help And the link to the site page http://odintest.co.nf/product_select.html
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeImage(a) {
document.getElementById("img").src=a;
}
</script>
<div id="main_img">
<img id="img" src="images/placeholder.jpg"/>
</div>
<div id="thumb_img">
<img src='images/notredamelogo.JPG' width="200" height="150" onmouseover='changeImage("images/notredame.JPG");'>
<img src="images/ohiostatelogo.jpg" onmouseover='changeImage("images/ohiostate.jpg");'>
<img src='images/michiganstatelogo.jpg' onmouseover='changeImage("images/michiganstate.jpg");'>
<img src='images/floridagatorslogo.jpg' onmouseover='changeImage("images/floridagators.jpg");'>
<img src='images/texaslonghornslogo.jpg' onmouseover='changeImage("images/texaslonghorns.jpg");'>
</div>

I don't know what problem you're describing, but I'm guessing a hover delay. Use a javascript preloader or load them in a div with styles along the lines of {position: absolute; left: -999em;} to keep them offscreen. This makes the images available immediately on hover, where normally you'd see a delay while they're downloaded.
The image at http://odintest.co.nf/images/texaslonghorns.jpg doesn't seem to exist on the server.

Well I see 2 issues.
For me the "notredamelogo.JPG" did not load. Probably because of "JPG". Try "jpg" instead.
Main image does not load for texaslonghorns. That might be because the image does not exist in that directory and/or the image name or extension is not right.

Images showing as broken when they shouldn't

I do not understand why the images on my site shows up as broken, if you could have a quick look at: http://www.lamcallum.com Is there someone that can solve this mystery? Any replies would be appreciated...
UPDATE: Issue is resolved.

Give your <img src="1pixelsquare1.gif"> //grey color image then it will work perfectly fine.
Your Code for each box
<div class='fade' onMouseOver="JSFX.fadeIn('button')" onMouseOut="JSFX.fadeOut('button')">
<img name="button" class="imgFader" width="100" height="100" border="0">
</a> //extra coded - remove it
</div>
Every box Img should have the "src" like this
<img name="button" class="imgFader" src="1pixelsquare1.gif" width="100" height="100" border="0">

It appears that on initial load, your images do not have a source. Which would explain why they are broken. Once mouse-over-ed they do.
ETA: More detail. The image tags do not have anything in the src property. Either in code behind, the html you have coded or js. If you post your original code I can help more.
