Another is to examine your photos and see if maybe they can be compacted in size. I'm sure there is a batch tool that would help to do this - Picasa does for uploading to PicasaWeb or Google+. You would want to copy your image files first to a safe place.
Actually, one possibility might be to use the RM Create a ShareCD and see if that processes the images. You could then open that database with your main RM to publish the website.

I do use Picassa, but what you wrote about batch tools to compact them in size goes a bit over my head. I have a love-hate relationship with Picassa. On one hand, it can be so user friendly, especially the photo-editing tools. On the other hand, when I go to the forums to find answers to questions, they might as well be speaking Greek. I don't understand what they're talking about. I guess I need to find a class or something. :-(

If you right-click on a folder in Picasa Folders, there is an option "Export as HTML Page" which gives a choice of picture size, from original down to 320 pixels. You might create a test folder with some big images in it and try it out. I don't know if it changes the file names - that would be a deal breaker.I do use Picassa, but what you wrote about batch tools to compact them in size goes a bit over my head.
Alternatively, with a folder selected, click on File > Export which opens up a different procedure with controls over file name, image size and quality and watermarking. This might even be better. Again, I have not tried it on a folder with sub-folders, only on individual pictures. So experiment with something safe.
