I'm experimenting with it now, Hitch. It's impressive. I'm still a little wary of all the "Cleanup Options" choices, except of course "Reformat smaller ebook images to help preserve image size."

From my experimenting (and again, I haven't seen results except in Sigil's "View" and Calibre's ebook Viewer) on the backmatter images, it would make sense to go with a really big image (reduce it percentage-wise--mabye to 85%--in GIMP first so the file size doesn't bloat) and then set the % to 33%. That way on small screens the image would be reduced and on big screens it wouldn't be tiny.

Something like:

<img alt="OopsANavy1800X2700" src="../Images/OopsANavy1800X2700.jpg" style="width: 33%;height: auto;"/>

What do you think? What image size and % do you think is optimal?

I don't think I'll use the plugin on my current books (I'm not up for proofreading them again) but I will change the backmatter images--run the plug-in on a copy and then enter the HTML for the backmatter images on the original--and I'm definitely going to use it with my new books when I open the .html in Sigil.
