Tribute Page - Eddie Rouse Memorial

Hi,
I created simple Memorial website for Eddie Rouse - American Actor, who played for exeample Kissy at Westworld.

I tried to keep everything in a simple form (the page looks like a newspaper article),
but also to make site as much responsive, as possible and use flexbox.

What do you guys think?
I will be happy to receive any feedback!
Thanks.

Nice work! But few things to do there:
You can set the picture in center and link can be put in below of picture. Try to resize image.
You can also add stylish fonts from here

Check out my page.
Give feedback, please.

Hey! Your page looks great!

I took a peek at your code and I see that you’re linking to (is that the google image?). That creates a lot of unruly code, and at some point google images will make a change that’ll break your code. You’d be better off saving the images you want and hosting them on a site like https://cloudinary.com/. That’ll give you cleaner code and save you some headaches in the future.

Hi @RDStemmler,
Can You provide me some additional info about this incompatibility?
It is weird, cause even Google use this technique in order to optimize their load latency.
Just check out their main page source code: https://www.google.com/

This is for example their logo:

I often use this

@Navid, thanks :slight_smile: I haven’t noticed that.

Google can make a change at any time, and without telling anyone they’re doing it. For example, when they acquired Picasa web albums, they shut it down and shunted everyone’s photos to Google Photos. They did this without warning and without redirects. When someone else has control over the links you’re using, you’re at their mercy, and you’re always in danger of a modification on their part that will affect your link. And while Google may link in a similar way for their own logo, they have control over every facet of that process. You don’t.

Another thing to consider is that Google is only providing you an image on another site, not an image on their own site. So let’s say you find an image through google image search on my website. You link to it (as you do in your Eddie Rouse page). A week later, I remove that image on my site. You now have an unruly and broken link, because that google link is no longer going to be valid. So now there’s two levels in which someone else has control over that image that can affect your ability to access it.

But that’s all really the least important parts of my case against linking directly to the google image. More important is code that runs so long that it becomes unruly on your page. That image link is 187 times longer than all of the rest of the text in your HTML file. Not 187 more characters, 187 times the total! I don’t think anyone will look at that and think it’s good code. Especially when there are alternatives (such as through Cloudinary, as I mentioned before) that will provide you with a much smaller character count.

@RDStemmler I do not know what You are talking about.
I do NOT link to any website. I just embedded the whole image inside the website’s source code.
Thanks to that it loads much faster compare to linking to another site.

That is bacause when You link to external resource browser needs to :

  1. Resolve resource domain name

  2. Create new HTTP Connection to that server

  3. Wait for content

Which is for me a really big waste of time.

You can read more about that here:

However Cloudinary does exactly what You mean:
It is external resource which can make a change at any time, and without telling anyone they’re doing it (e.g. they may terminate their free plan).

Yes, probably You got the point.
This is one of my habits from the current workplace, where speed is the most important factor.
Sometimes we have to answer below 200 ms.

I will work on this :slight_smile:
