I searched the the help about Images  but wes not able to locate if there is a way to prevent the  the renderering of Thumbnails or Images for faster loading times ...

We have a page with around 600 images that is very slow loading on olser PCs or slow connection. The images are displayed as a 420 pixels thumbnails. I'm wokring on the (maybe very wrong assumption) that reducing the Thumnails to a tiny 42pixels  would results in the 28 MB of rendered graphics to 2.8MB thus making the load close to 10 times faster Tthere are only a few lines of text that accompany each image while the "thumbail" is 420x111 or close to 46k for each of the 600 images...

The current solution was to make Collapsable table  but it prevents pepole for using Ctrl-F to find information on the page ...

I was wondering if there is a switch to tell the "wiki-text" processor to  treat a PNG file  as a simple link  instead of a Graphic Image ? ...    I.,e. Having   IMAGE.PNG  displayed as a Link instead of the rendering of the image or thumbnail ?

Thanks to anyone who can enligthen me on the subject ... Links to relevant Help pages are more than Welcomed ... RTFMs a little less   (:^D ...

P.S. I found something about a NO-IMAGE tool but it is for users who do not want images at all on a Wiki ... but maybe thare is a similar tool/witch for Image pre-processing on a Page level that could be the simplest solution ...
