It's the first thing visitors see and it will help keep them glued to your page. As for the rest? Images can be reduced in size with programs like Microsoft Paint or something more complex if you happen to have it. Faces in testimonials can be kept to 100 x 100 pixels or so. One digital product package should also be enough, preferable accompanying the "Buy now"/"Sign up now"/"Act now" call to action most appropriate to your business theory. I've seen repeating images used in the background of some sites. They only require that the repeating image be loaded once. Test conversions with and without it to see if it works for you. They're nice, but I've never found them necessary if your load times are suffering because of one. Furthermore, if you can do something with a CSS trick, those are much faster than images for a browser to resolve. CSS is nothing more than a set of instructions sent to the browser and can make things like dashed lines, colored borders, and with a tiny gradient image, title bars of varying lengths without huge load times.

I agree that pictures are very important, plain text only pages are begging for the back button to be clicked. I'm guessing you use some program to reduce the file size of the pics?

And when it comes to selling digital products, personalization is the key.

They help to convey trust, emotions and often help us to take action which of course is beneficial for a sales page. I think it is important to accompany images with any message online.
