The only time having a lot of layers will effect file size, is when you're talking about a Photoshop PSD file. More layers = a larger file size.


But as G said, when you save out your image as a "2D" graphics format -- i.e. bmp, png, gif, jpg, etc... -- then layers are no longer an issue. Once flattened, then image format used will use it's own method of determining how large the file size will be.

And this has nothing to do with multiple layers used in a Photoshop document.


Just remember to "Optimize" the images used for your Website. ;)
