In Themes/smfbw20rc1/images/
Replace off.gif and on.gif with images you 'd like to use ;)

Oh, and to answer your second question - to me your site seems fast already, so are you having some speed issues yourself?

You don't need to edit anything, you can just change the images :) Use the same names, and that's it.

retis

themes/default/on.gif
themes/default/off.gif

They are the files for the new posts no new posts.

There is also new_some.gif and new_none.gif for the legend ones (obviously they need to match and be smaller)

there is also on2.gif which is the one when there is new child posts.

There is also Themes/default/images/english/new.gif which is the one next to the topic once your in the board.

Look at the sizes of the images and create new images with the correct sizes and filenames then upload them to the relevant folders on your FTP, no ciding neccessary if done like this.

Also when i went onto your site on the main page ont he right hand side the boxes are hanging off the edge of the main background.

so remove off.gif and on.gif and upload my own images with the name off.gif and on.gif?

yeah, my instructions where slightly different, didnt realise you were using 2.0. But it's essentially the same, find the image locations and replace them. If you using firefox right click any image you wish to change, and click properties to easily gain the info about it you require.
