Interesting note on the impact of image size variation on queue, thanks for elaborating.
Serving those resources from the 99designs domain is worth a look. I considered the cookies and security trade offs as well. I found H2 compressed cookies enough to perform better than a separate cookieless domain for static assets, due to the DNS savings. DNS times can be bad at high percentiles. Reflected XSS addressed with a Content Security Policy. But I'm fortunate to have user base that supports CSP well.
