Its possible to receive a huge number of images/text if you are part of Whatsapp groups. Are these stored locally on my phone ?
I'm able to continuously "Load earlier messages" even when the phone isnt connected to internet so these must be stored locally. Is there a way to keep images in the server.. maybe this way the images can be of higher resolution too.

Local backups will be automatically created every day at 2:00 AM and saved as a file in your phone. If your data isn't stored in the /sdcard/WhatsApp/ folder, you might see "internal storage" or "main storage" folders.
On Android, media files are automatically saved in your WhatsApp/Media/folder. If you have Internal Storage, the WhatsApp folder is located in your Internal Storage. If you do not have internal storage, the folder will be on your SD Card or External SD Card.
You can transfer your WhatsApp data to a new phone by restoring from Google Drive or a local backup. WhatsApp automatically takes a backup of its chats on the local storage every day. Therefore, you can just copy the local backup file and move it to your new Android device.
What Happens When You Clear Data of WhatsApp. When you clear WhatsApp data, you will need to verify your WhatsApp account again, just as you did when you installed it on your phone. Make sure you have access to the same number that was registered with WhatsApp. And yes, your chats will be deleted by clearing its data.
In WhatsApp, all the data will be stored in your device. Any message and image will get stored in your phone. Both chat history and images will be stored in a database on the device and images will be visible through the gallery within a folder named WhatsApp.
If you delete any image from the WhatsApp folder in the gallery, you won't be able to see the deleted image in WhatsApp anymore. Looking at a chat's history, the deleted image will look blurred, and clicking on it you will result in an error message saying "sorry this media file doesn't exist on your SD card".

Yes, Images, like all media and messages received through WhatsApp, are stored locally. They're stored in /data/data/com.whatsapp/ and can't in any way be saved on a server.
In iOS, the files are in /var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/*/Message/Media (where * is the whatsApp folder). You need to have jailbreak to access the folder.
