Yabbut imagine the jpeg artifacts at such a compression. I assumed you
wanted them as good a quality as possible under the circs.

but even at 5Meg they seemed to arrive okay. I think email systems like

some years ago. Even ZIPped text went through so slowly, you could nod
off while counting the bytes on the upload screen....
