What are your settings to get The Straight Dope? I get a huge file with a link depth of 1 and none of the hyperlinks work. Is there a mobile version of the site, or do you have special knowledge?
I use the base url (http://www.straightdope.com) with these settings:

links: 1
checked: follow off-site links

images: include
resize: 300x260
compress: checked
8-bit: checked

That works for me, and I get the featured q/a stories (which is all I want to get). Size of the converted file is about 268k.

Cheers,
