FP doesn't really compress photos. If your photos are JPG format, then they
are already compressed to some extent. You can use a third-party photo
editor to save the file with a particular compression, but you really start
to drop off when you use about 10 to 20% compression. GIF isn't a
compressible file format. Basically, when you save an image as a jpg or gif
you need to optimize it before you get it into something like FP. FP can set
the compression for a JPG, but it lacks a lot of the better features of
third-party photo software and the photos end up looking terrible.
