Yep be happy to, just wondering why? Why are they too big? A 512 x 512 pix image produces a file 768kb in size is this what you're after?

Thanks for your prompt reaction; yes, what I am afraid is that larger files will slow down the game (which has acquired gigantic proportions with all my add-ons anyway!); I had a look at the standard tgas so I ended up with that size. May I also second Agracier's demand for SCW background images? Keep up the great work!
