My first site I made back in high school had some images at the top of the page do show off the robotics team I was making it for at the time. Super cool stuff. Look ma! I used an <img> tag! Thing was, I didn't know about image compression and uploaded raw DSLR photos from the team camera. Home page took a good 10-15 seconds to load even on localhost.
Bonus: The site had about 5 pages (this was long before I had learned anything about server side rendering or build tools) and so I copy-pasted the <head> manually into every .html file for the project.
