HTML page and Image size issue

[Lakshmipathi]

I'm creating a web page with some screenshots (png format)
having 10 images(each approx 70-80KB) ,which makes approx.1MB page size.
When i googled for a while and i found ideal page size is 30kb..

How to reduce it's size?
Try different formats like jpeg/gif/bmp etc?
How to proceed? Any suggestions?

PNG is very good for technical drawings, medium sized pictures with sharp lines or logos and the like. It is generally favourable in case where any decrease of quality, such as blurring of lines or text, would be fatal.

JPG is made for photos and big images, where a bit of blurring for the sake of a smaller file size is justifiable. For example, in a photograph of you on the beach it does not really disturb the observer if the eye of that seagull in the upper left corner is a bit blurred. You can choose the level of compression manually, finding a balance between file size and sharpness.

GIF is a bit outdated, but is still popular for small 256 color icons, like smilies. It is also the way to go if you want to have the icon animated.

BMP is the worst choice in all cases. It simply has no advantages. Period.
