is to delete all the "full size" pix.  Some of them run 300-600kb in 
size.  Another idea is to have everyone download and "save" 
the "parts pix" (such as dashes, brakes, bonnet hinges, etc.) to 
their own computers for storage.  That way they could be used later 
on if someone needed them.

only put 3 or 4 in the photo section.
