 * Hello!
 * Your plugin is good, but I have some problem.
    My site has many authors and after
   uploading all avatars, I have an increasing of HTTP requests. I would like to
   use a CSS sprite for example, but I don’t know how. Maybe you have any idea how
   to decrease HTTP requests?
 * Kind Regards

 * Hello
 * Thank you for your response.
 * About the requests:
 * When I load any “widget for authors” to the sidebar of my theme(a twenty-fifteen),
   
   every image that is loaded for the avatar of the author (I have many authors)
   give one additional HTTP request to the server(host), and I receive a notice 
   from the Pingdom: “This page makes 32 parallelizable requests to example.com.
   Increase download parallelization by distributing these requests across multiple
   hostnames: –[https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Alexa.jpg&#8211](https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Alexa.jpg&#8211);–
   [https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Anna.jpg&#8211](https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Anna.jpg&#8211);–
   [https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Anuta.jpg&#8211](https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Anuta.jpg&#8211);………
   etc.” I have tried to distribute these requests across multiple hostnames, I 
   used this function–[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34404336/how-to-parallelize-downloads-across-hostnames-on-wordpress/34404337#34404337&#8211](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34404336/how-to-parallelize-downloads-across-hostnames-on-wordpress/34404337#34404337&#8211);,
   but I didn’t receive a needed result, I received that all my images of the blog(
   site) were disabled. The second variant to resolve this problem, I thought, to
   create a CSS sprite and plug to your plugin or any “widget for authors”, but 
   unfortunately, I am not a specialist and I don’t understand how to do it, and
   I don’t know if it is possible. Maybe do you have any idea to help me?
 * *My host provider has HTTP/1, I asked to change to HTTP/2, he wrote to me that
   the vendor sets the rules, not he.
 * Kind Regards
