re graphics size you should be looking at around 30k
per page for a reasonable speed website. Obviously you
can increase that figure but the page will slow down
accordingly. Don't go over 100k without warning
visitors.

if you go to websitegarage.com you will be able to get
speeds of your page with various connections.

jpg's are a good way to get the size down (try maximum
compression first as often this is fine)
but if there is not a huge range of colours in your
picture I would say use gifs everytime as you have a
much finer degree of control.
