Use image sprites where appropriate

Each image is an HTTP request—combining many small images into one sprite reduces requests, though modern HTTP/2 and SVG icons have reduced this need.

Quick Reference

• Sprites combine multiple images into one to reduce HTTP requests
• Modern alternative: SVG icon systems (more flexible)
• HTTP/2 makes sprites less critical but still useful for small icons
• Consider inline SVG or icon fonts for most icon use cases

Check

Check if small images and icons are combined into sprites to reduce HTTP requests.

Fix

Create CSS sprites for icons and small images, or migrate to SVG icons.
