Mashable Style Wordpress Plugin to Load Image While Scrolling Down
I got a very good question from one of my friend last night. Pubudu, the admin of Tech Hamlet is very much interested to know about code that allow him to load images while scrolling down. So, here is how the conversation went on!!

Pubudu: hey bro….
me: s
Pubudu: when scrolling don.. your images are fading up like in mashable! how did you do that?
me: ah, that’s plugin
wait
Pubudu: please tell me please please
please please please 
me: Wait, I will…
me: jQuery image lazyload wordpress plugin, It works great.
Pubudu: thanks a lot mate!
me: any time for you 
The basic functionality of this plugin is that it loads images while scrolling down through the web page. Which means, images out side the view point is no longer seen until you scroll down to them.
As mentioned above the plugin works great. However, it has some problem with its functionality while working with combination of few other plugins. If you have any problem, then you can simply deactivate some of the Ajax and jquery plugins that you have already installed. This might solve your problem.
That’s all I’ve got for now. I’ll be back with another interesting article next time. Until then, its provamsi signing off from www.india365.org.

Interesting plugin. Thanks for sharing. Somehow I was looking for it after seeing the performance on Mashable but didn’t find it. Going to try it on my site soon and see how it goes. Cheers

Nice plugin but I am concerned about whether this can help boosting my blog loading time or not?

I don’t think so. But, it should surely improve the look and feel of your blog if you have good number of images all through the blog.

Hehe….. it sure is a cool plugin bro! but it seems to be helping to increase the blog loading speed also! But unfortunately, it loaded my sidebar images at last… so those images were blank until i scroll down
I think that’s because of my theme 
anyway … thanks for sharing bro

Not sure if I need this plugin on my blog, but it certainly looks interesting!

Very good plugin but as suggested it can come into conflict with other Ajax based Wordpress plugins. So let me watch and wait until there are known bugs in it..

Thanks for the plugin..
I think it will minimize the loadtime of our blog.. ?? Is it true ?

As I see it, this will allow you to reduce loading time. Or will it in fact leave the load time hanging?…that is until the image is viewed?
