I don’t know if this is a host problem or a template problem. But, whenever I visit my webpage (www.returntheresource.com) on my laptop it causes my laptop to completely freeze, and the only thing that fixes it is to turn off the laptop. Seems to work from other computers, but load time is very slow. Does any one have any advice for this problem? Thanks.

Please try using a different theme so you can rule out themes as the problem.

Also, you are using HUGE 4000x3000px and even bigger images as background, slider and column images. That’s why your site is loading so slow. Shrink the images down to required sizes and things will improve.

Thanks! Do I need to scale images down on my photo program via my computer and re-upload, or do it on the WP media area? Thanks again, first-timer here.

When Uploading an image, WordPress usually creates multiple versions of your images. But the with the really big images you’re using it would probably be a lot better to scale them with your photo program on your PC before uploading.
