That was the slowest loading picture of all time, so I right-clicked on the picture to look at its properties. It’s a whopping 5.8 MB! I would suggest resizing your pictures before uploading them to WordPress. That does many things for you.
First, it allows WordPress to render the picture much faster, almost instantaneously, for the smaller size of your blog post.
Second, it is much faster to upload a 100 KB picture than it is a 5.8 MB picture. I resize my pictures to be 575 pixels on the longest side, which makes the picture around 75 KB. I’ve never uploaded a picture that was larger than 100 KB.
Third, a smaller picture of 100 KB uses less of your allowed storage space. You can upload fifty-eight 100-KB pictures for every one 5.8-MB picture.
Fourth, those readers who are impatient with page and picture loading will stick around, look, read, like, and comment.

Well, I wish I read this note first, makes more sense, the problem is I don’t know how to do that. My Uncle will help.
Thanks for letting know.
