Photoshop would allow you to improve, crop, adjust the pix before saving them as JPEG files. It also has a Save For The Web feature that condenses fiels for you. Or check out http://www.tucows.com/windows and download a free graphics condensor program. I prefer Photoshop. If you cold email them I'd be happy to squish thm and send them back.
And yes I am weird, thanks for noticing, but the whole bURNINGvAN thing should spread.

You're weird! We don't set cities on fire...so far. At least not as far as I know, or will admit to in court.
But the idea of a traveling bURNINGvAN, now that's genius. That way we could stay one step ahead of the cops, and the purists who decry setting vans on fire, the spoilsports.
I'm planning to provide BenT will the pictures I took, all of vans at his request, but I can't remember how to reduce the quality so I can actually send them. I seem to remember doing it in photoshop but that seems clumsy.

"bURNINGvAN Setting the world on fire one city at a time!" People pictures would still be optional.
