Justin, you made a good point about that already with #16 “Reduce Http requests from other sites”. This was a HUGE issue we dealt with recently on a client’s site. In addition to loading files from their own domain, they were loading the HackerSafe logo from McAfee, analytics from Google and Raven SEO, etc etc. YSlow from Yahoo is a great tool for optimizing sites. http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/ It requires Firefox and Firebug. agree with Jason here about the number of http requests for sliced images.

And there has been developed open source tool to do all this stuff - Web Optimizer ( http://code.google.com/p/web-optimizator/ ). It includes gzip, merging, minify, CSS Sprites, data:URI, multiple hosts,unobtrusive logic, etc, etc. All this can be done automatically.

We always try to call custom CSS and replace table tag to div as much as possible. i agree with Justin Palmer we use CSS and reduce formatting to direct HTML.

Most performance benefits can come from reducing the HTTP requests. I just thought the Sprite idea may need a little more explanation: The best way is to combine several images into a single file (called a Sprite) and then these can be placed on the page as background images and positioned with CSS. Typical uses would included buttons in their various states (as an example create the button background with it's hover state as a single image so when you hover you simply change the position of the background image, rather than downloading a new image on the fly), custom fonts can be put in one file and inserted using image replacement, and there are of course others...
