I resize before posting, but they're still around 2 MB each.

Looking at your recent post — which was very slow to load — you can easily go for more aggressive compression and/or half that size. I wouldn't go above ~400KB unless you have something really special with important fine detail.

I agree -- I personally resize (usually) to 1200 pixels maximum width, which is big enough to fill the available width on an HD monitor (1920 pixels less the space used by the forum). And that would result in roughly 15% of total number of pixels (compared to the 3000x3000 pixel shot you recently posted), and 15% of the size in MB. And 15% of the load time on a slow network!
