Problem: Each PNG image is around 1MB. I think a comparable JPG should be more on the order of 100kb.
Solution:
After the exporter creates a PNG, it should then run a script that converts that PNG into a JPG image, and saves it into the the exports/jpg directory.
Then the output shown to the user should be the JPG when it renders the image, and also the permalink URL it gives to viewers.
Lastly, the homepage images of most recent 8 should be updated to be the jpg images.
