Don't laugh, this is a reasonable suggestion, even for modern computers. Even showing my aunts some pics on Facebook was fairly slow (on their AT&T DSL "Lite"). Perhaps the resolution was big, but it felt very reminiscent of old days using 2400bps modems and interlaced GIFs! Honestly, though, not sure what DUGL supports, but perhaps DOS386 can enlighten us, does PNG support interlacing? JPEG? BMP? (I think at least one of those also does.)
