Try to keep your web images as small as possible. THere are tricks to this, but it also takes practice. Try saving 1 image at 10 different JPG compression qualities -- this affects the quality of the image. You sacrifice quality to get smaller file size. Generally, an image needs to be a JPG if the original image contains photographic tone.
After you've saved variations, put them all in one web page, so you can compare them with each other. Can you really tell the difference between 50% and 60% quality, for example? If not, choose the poorer quality image. It takes some practice. Many artists (when they first start working with digital images for the web) make their images larger/better quality than necessary.
