[Jack London]

Hello,

Can you show me what are the advantages of using CSS Sprites in web design?

I know if I use this technique then its file size is bigger than normal images but It will reduce number of HTTP requests needed to render a webpage thus it increase page speed for website very much.

what is your opinion?

any shares?

Sprite is very useful image format which is used to mention many images as background with a single image. So it will reduces the number of images and size.
