Ah, I see what you mean. But since I still have to scale the resulting
sprite, I could as well use the ChangeFSI function right away.

The routine does allow me to convert 2 or 3 small JPEGS, or 1 slightly
bigger JPEG, to the desired thumbnail before it runs out of memory. But
I've no idea how to manage extra workspace, nor do I have an idea how to
save the resulting sprite into an existing sprite file. Despite the quite
extensive documentation, I fail to understand the working of the function.

Kind regards,
Paul
