Tabs + Woocommerce

I have 4 tabs and each tab is showing different products based on categories or some other feature.

It adds up to over 30 images – either the product image or the category image.

I there a way I can tell it to NOT show the images at all via a setting in this plugin?

Each image is a call to the server and each takes 55 millisecond or 1.7 seconds of time total. Looking for ways to reduce that.

Thoughts?
