With all this internet going around, sometimes you just want to experience the thrill of a long page load. Give your users the chance to enjoy a little slice of the future by slow loading your website's images with ComcastifyJS!
-
Include comcastify.js on your page, or use the latest version from our CDN:
<script src="https://code.onion.com/comcastify.js"></script>
-
Prepare the images on your page on document ready (so images don't show up before the box):
comcastifyjs.letsPrepareTheseImages();
-
Initialize comcastify on window load (so image sizes are properly calculated):
comcastifyjs.fixMyImagesLoadingSoFast({ boxColor: '#123456', loadMaxPercent: 0.75, loadSpeed: 100, loadIncrement: 5 });
-
Switch up parameters to change your experience:
- elements : A list of DOM elements to limit comcastification to.
- boxColor : The hex color for the box placed over images.
- loadMaxPercent : The max percentage of image to load. (0 to 1)
- loadSpeed : Time required to load your images to their max in ms.
- loadIncrement : Number of pixels to load each time the loadSpeed timer ticks.
- randLoadIncrement: Set to true to make load increment random, loadIncrement ignored in this case.
- randomPause : Probability of skipping a pass each time the loadSpeed timer ticks. (0 to 1)
- progressiveJPEG Set to true to enable progressive JPEG emulation

Now grab a coffee and enjoy the load times!
