MissDamsel you might want to check how you saved your files, templates should not be that large, unless you have a lot of transparent layers like blended masks.
Also, the colors you use will determine file size. Brighter, more vibrant colors take up more file size. Try changing things to shades of gray to reduce file size. Do not use texture on your layers, keep everything plain.
If you have a lot of similar flowers or elements on your template, you might want to consider putting them on the same layer, that will reduce file size.
My templates are typically less than 10mb and that includes the png, the tif and the png layers in one folder.
When saving tif files, you should use these settings in PS/PSE:
Image Compression - LZW
Pixel Order - Interlayed
Layer Compression - ZIP
this will hugely reduce tif size.
Hope this helps.
