Why we looked again
A PageSpeed snapshot on 6 November gave the Lab 100 performance points on mobile and 87 on desktop. The desktop report identified the Mario desk illustration as the largest content element. A good mobile score did not mean the image downloads were small.
What changes
We now serve smaller WebP delivery copies for the shared logo, animated Aik, Mario at his desk and the journal illustration. Responsive image candidates let the browser choose a suitable size. The desk image receives high fetch priority; image dimensions continue to reserve its layout space.
The collection and journal follow
The project directory now also uses responsive WebP copies of Mario holding his notebook. Journal cards use small preview copies instead of downloading the full article images. The original screenshots and illustrations stay available in the notes. This follow-up addresses a 95-point desktop result for the project directory and unnecessary image data in the journal, even though the journal already scored 100.
What stays
The approved original artwork files remain available unchanged. These delivery copies resize and compress existing illustrations; they do not redesign the characters. Pause Aik and the reduced-motion rules remain in place. No analytics or tracking script was added.
How we judge the result
We check the published homepage with PageSpeed and inspect desktop and mobile layouts. Lab scores can vary, and a single result does not describe every visitor experience. The aim is less data and a stable page, rather than a score alone.
