Image taking forever to load

I am experiencing an odd issue with an image on one of my webpages that is struggling to load quickly. I have already decreased the file size to 5mb, and it still takes around 30 seconds for this image to load. Does anyone have any solutions? Thanks!

Page with the image: Andrew Bruns Design Portfolio — The Gist

hey, 5mb seems still a bit big though. Why is it a png with transparent bg if the website has a pure black bg?

I would save it as a jpg with a black background. I think you can get it down to around 200 kb with the same crispness and detail and the loading issue would be gone

That is a great idea! I’ll try it out.
