You can usually get your PC to save it with less detail; I use Windows Picture Manager, Picture => Compress => for Web pages, then Save As so you don't lose the original high definition picture.

i just LOVE piglets!
Me too!  Meg having hers, and these first few weeks, have been amongst the very best times of my life.  ;D

will they keep that brown colour?

is that an unusual kune colour, or just that I've never seen it?!

she had one the brown colour the last time, 2 this time but they look lighter/slightly more ginger this time, did worry it was a throw back from wild boars because they have stripes too but on the KKPS it is a notified colour, got a more chocolatey brown stripey too. My friend got the last brown one (named Honey) so will see if i get a photo of her to see how she has turned out!
