Mac Book Pro Slowing Down

disable Spotlight indexing and time machine from accessing those image folders (provided you don't need this backed up)

At least for me this helped a lot. Also get 'Free Memory' app from apps store (free), and clean RAM when it get's under 1GB. I presume you have enough RAM (4GB at the very least) or it's even pointless talking about anything else
 
Are you using any anti-virus programmes? I was using a (can't remember which) well known one that slowed my Mac down with exactly the same as you are experiencing.

I uninstalled it and it cured the problem.

I use something that uses a smaller footprint now.
 
Have you looked in the activity monitor and taken a look what is taking up cpu, memory, disk input/output etc...

And when you say slowing down, what is slowing down? Is it the network for upload/download? What mechanism are you using to upload/download the images?
 
I FEEL IT MAY BE SAFARI THAT IS SLOWING / FREEZING COULD THIS BE THE CASE

WHEN I SAY UPLOADING / DOWNLOADING I TAKE THE IMAGE OF SUPPLIER'S SITE DRAG TO DESKTOP THEN CLICK UPLOAD AND GRAB IT BACK FROM DESKTOP

SOME TIMES EVEN WHEN DOING THIS IT STILL LOCKS UP NOT JSUT ONE PAGE SEVERAL AND YES I NEED SEVERAL OPEN FOR INFO REGARDING TO THE IMAGE NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE BUT DOES IT REGULAR NOW
