Do they slow down boot up?

Only on AMD machines.

No.

Programs running in the background (i.e. TRAY icons) do.

Well, according to Einstein's theory of Special Relativity, the order of events may appear different to different people depending on their point of view.

You can't arrange by penis.

Icons don't slow down bootup, it's your startup programs and services instead.

Open up services.msc, and msconfig and disable unnecessary services and uncheck useless bootup programs.

Sure they do. Your computer has to associate pictures to the links/shortcuts/whatever and has to dig them up. It is easy to see this in action by ending the explorer task and restarting it.
