More than likely your camera is taking the pics at too high a resolution. This is great for printing the pics, but is needlessly to large for posting on the web. You need to copy the files to your hard drive (in fact make a duplicate copy in a different location so you dont modify the originals), then use a program to open and resize them. MS Paint comes with Windows, and although useless for any editing, will allow you to resize them.

I use 800pixels wide on a horizontal, or 800pixels high on a vertical shot. The other measurement will be less and determined automatically to keep the aspect ratio correct. It is possible that some pictures may load, and others not, as most cameras save the file in a JPEG or .jpg format which is compressed to save space.
With .jpg files, the more detail or colors in the original, the larger the file will be. They are not all the same file size.
