Slowly Loading Blog...Trying to Optimize.

    Hello, I was hoping to get someone's insight on why my blog is loading so slowly. I use Firefox, and whenever I go to my blog, http://lindsayblum.com, the page will load so slowly, or will crash my browser.

    At the moment, I'm trying to optimize my blog, but it is still loading slowly. I've limited the amount of posts to display, resized images, but am still having trouble.

    Any help, direction, or insight would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you for your time,
    Lindsay

    The blog I need help with is lindsayblum.com.

    Your blog is very image heavy. The fewer posts you have on your front page, the fewer and smaller images and embeds there are in the posts and on that page, the less there is ion the sidebar - the faster the loading time becomes. Here are strategies for reducing page loading time.
