Default Winzip Help..... **

Right, just a quickie folks.

Need to send a mate some photos, 50megs worth, so im trying to zip them.

Done everything, but the folder is still 49meg!?

Checked the compression rate, and its only at 3%, which explains it, so, how do i up the compression rate to decrease the filesize... ?

Cheers folks! Any help is mucho appreciated.

If they are jpgs then they are already compressed.
