Try the low resolution attribute of the IMG tag. Your low rez image can be a
"Please wait" image and the regular image will be the actual image. I've not
used this personally but NS and IE are said to support it even though it's
not standard HTML.
<img src="image.gif" lowsrc="pleasewait.gif" height=x width=y>
If you don't specify the height and width then the size of the low-rez image
is used for both.
