Leo,
converting to .jpg will certainly help. You can adjust the quality of 
the jpg to control the size of the resulting file.

It may also be that the resolution of the pic is far higher than it 
needs to be for the web. You need no more than 72 dpi for web display. 
Reducing this will not only change the file size but also decrease the 
amount of physical space it takes up on the screen.
