 To save bandwidth or to be SEO friendly, or just because it needs less

 I suggest to exchange the header image with a compressed version.

 tinjpg.com can do so and here's the result

 compressed image is 143KB (vs 209KB)

 @joemcgill  likes the idea, he said:

 >Ran DSSIM on the two images and they’re 99.8% visually similar, which is
 nearly indistinguishable
