About 15 graphics and the header.
EDIT -- I take that back, the only difference between new and old:
- 4 graphics around the sides and top (your browser should cache them, so no hit after the first page view)
- rotating header on the new style
- advertisements by google (for those that haven't contributed) on the new style
My "guess", since I don't really know without mucking with anything, is that it is the rotating header, since I am making an additional call to the database to rotate the header. Just switched to the old style, threw me for a loop since I have gotten used to the new style, also, it took "longer" to load for me. Granted, I am on broadband in Japan, and I have some latency issues connecting to the site, so I doubt I am a good "sample" for connectivity. Then again Schnugg, I am sure you have even farther to go to connect.
Oh well, whatever works. There is also a "low bandwidth" style, that I use, I can make that available if ppl are interested. Looks just like the archives, and enable you to browse very quickly on a dialup.
