Are you after reducing your server load and speeding up your web pages? You’ve heard of CSS sprites before but you don’t know how they can bring improvements in your situation?

Well, simply put, each image on a web page is a separate HTTP request to the server, and experience shows that you can dramatically increase the performance of a page by combining multiple images or icons into a larger image sprite sheet. CSS is finally used to select the parts of the composite image to display at different places in the page.

Plugin Description

WordPress CSS Sprites Generator for posts content try to offer your pages this performance improvement by automatically creating for you corresponding CSS sprites for images in posts, pages and custom type posts which reduce by the way the amount of image files and then the amount of HTTP requests.

Family galleries, portfolios, news reports with a lot of small and medium photos, manual making of sprites for every post content can be a really tedious task. WordPress CSS Sprites Generator for posts content saves your bandwidth and provides an automated solution to replace all standard tag by the corresponding CSS sprites.

You can try CSS sprites generation your self and compare before you decide whether to buy it.

• CSS Sprites generation WILL NOT WORK with PAGED galleries plugin, it’s not possible to automate this generation since every plugin handles the pagination on its own way
