<p>Images are delivered, received and displayed using a computer network (36) that allows for the images to be delivered in stages. This reduces the amount of time required to wait for an image, or a web page containing that image, to load on a display (40) at a computer (38). The user initially views a low-quality version of the image. For web pages, the page content loads with the low-quality version so that the user views the regular page quickly. The full image then loads in the background while the user decides whether to wait to view the full image or move on to another location or web page.</p> |
