/* ============================================================
   CRITICAL HTML CHANGES NEEDED (add to your <head>):
   ============================================================
   
   1. FONT PRELOAD — add before any stylesheet link:
      <link rel="preload" href="/fonts/Tanker_Complete/Fonts/OTF/Tanker-Regular.otf"
            as="font" type="font/otf" crossorigin>

   2. LCP IMAGE — on your hero/main-image <img> tag add:
      loading="eager" fetchpriority="high"
      width="..." height="..." (set actual pixel dimensions)

   3. ALL OTHER IMAGES below the fold — add:
      loading="lazy"

   4. GOOGLE FONTS — if using Merriweather/Overpass/Inter via Google Fonts:
      Add display=swap to the URL:
      <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Merriweather&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
      OR preconnect:
      <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
      <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin>

   5. INLINE CRITICAL CSS — the header + hero styles above should be
      inlined in a <style> tag in <head> so the first paint doesn't
      wait for the full CSS file to download.
