Hmm. All of my pngs were converted, to gif, or jpeg. None were larger than 13 kB. One png was 3409 bytes, converted to an 8.8kB jpeg.

I used kindlegen plugin, set to make AZW only.
Also tried Kindle previewer, same result with the images.

This all using Kindlegen 2.9

Made another test file with a bunch of PNG, all were converted to jpeg or gif.

I optimise my images with Irfanview, which also lets you target sizes (for jpegs anyway).
