I was recently asked whether the maps are below 10MB so they could be used for Roll20. I'm asking to check if it's a common need. Would you be interested in such option?

It's not too much trouble reducing a map's size to work with roll20 myself, a lower quality version is more convenient though. From what I've seen, a lot of creators include two version, a high quality one, and a roll20/online version that's reduced in size, if that helps

I feel pretty much the same. I prefer having them ready to drop into r20, but it's not too much effort to shrink it down in PhotoShop, and a lot of times i'm adding some assets to the map anyway. For me, the bigger problem is my own storage; I currently have about 220 GB of maps, and that takes up a bit of space, so having the smaller files helps out. :)

Thank you two! I can see it is quite popular. If you have issue with storing files up, you can try to compress them more in 7zips - the more compressed they are the longer they will unpack when needed, but at least you can save more space!
