title: Fast Image loading methods, low to high res with multiple backgrounds - javascript solution?
body: <pre><code>background-image:url('images/bg1.png'), url('images/speed/bg1.jpg');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm trying to take advantage of the option for multiple background images for an element to load, first, a fast, low-res version of each background image to be replaced by the higher quality version once it has loaded. </p>
  
  <p>Any efficient solutions?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Note: The below is more wishful thinking than an actual question; I thought this might be a good topic to pin the inquiry to.</strong></p>
  
  <p>As a side question, does anyone know of a method of using this sort of idea, instead have the image transition into rendering from low-to high res, with some sort of noise effect, if you see where I'm going with that. Would be as if each image sort of smoothed out from plain noise to HD, gaining resolution until it hits the proper level, as it loads. </p>
  
  <p>I guess what I'm getting at is: <strong>"can a script be written to load a single image as variable noise slowly gaining clarity as the image loads, instead on loading 100% res from the top-down?"</strong></p>
