Have you evaluated each image in relation to its contribution to the understanding of the service?
Precisions
The weight of an image, thus its impact, is incomparable with text. The choice to use an image must be justified. An image may be necessary or even contractual (image of a product on an online sales service) or only serve to fill in space in the content. Reducing the number of images decreases the impact of using the service.
