I thought I would share this with you all as over the last year I've noticed various threads about images just trundling on one at a time when you visit a page.
It's one of my pet hates with sites that I build and it doesn't seem to matter how well you optimise the images they still trundle on one at time. If you've optimised them well they trundle on quickly and visa versa.
My tip is instead of making several images, just make one big one.
If you visit this page http://www.kindoffice.co.uk/product_catagories.php if you look at all the square boxes in the middle, you will notice they all load in one go.
What I did was make one big image containing all those squares and then put transparent shapes over the squares, which contains alt tags and links.
Hopefully you will find this useful if like me you don't like images that trundle on.
