Show us the code you are using - and we can take a look at what you are doing. Of course, there are some useful FAQs here that might be of value, too.

What browsers do you need it to work on (and what browsers are you testing this with)?
If you are using Firefox, you may get some value in extensions like LORI (Lifetime Of Request Info) and TamperData. These can help profile how long things are taking to load (and in what order etc)... and maybe identify high latency to stats counters etc.
Provide a cut-down working example of the problem you are experiencing and we can take it from there.

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

Preloading of images is useful to preload rollover images and to preload images for the 'next' page you're loading.
If the images you're talking about are always displayed on the current page (and espicially if that page is your entry point), there is not really any preloading involved. You may wish to optimize the graphics on the page or reduce the number of images to speed up display.
If the page is an internal page on your site, you can probably use some variation on Jeff's second suggestion.
