Okay here's my problem, I LOVE taking pictures which I end up storing on my computer. When I have my Mac let me see a preview of the picture on its icon, it sometimes takes a pretty long time to load. Is there a way to make it faster for the images to load? Thanks! :biohazard

EDIT: Is there also a way to keep the icons loaded so it won't need to reload every time I restart my Mac?

make them smaller

I'm just kidding
bigger the file is, longer it takes. can't really change it. also depends on the file type. JPG and PDF are fastest

Use Quickimage and Viewitlite

I have noticed at times the image doesn't begin loading immediately, when this happens, hit command on your kb, it starts it loading.

You can also use something like CocoThumbX to generate thumbnails and they appear instantaneously in finder.
