I'd suggest you consider the pan-and-scan possibilities. Also, one 24kb image shouldn't hurt, but when you have several on the same page, they add up.

Also, thumbs/links allow the viewer to have the image and the text open "side-by-side" so they can be cross-referenced; and the image can be resized to aid in viewing.
