Zipping was actually NAT's idea. I had to find out how to do it. (I was very new to Windows at that point. My old computer only had DOS.) It was she who turned my WordPerfect files into Word, too. All in the interests of accessibility!

Someone did later suggest doing PDF files; but, when I checked, I realized that 22 of them would also exceed my ISP webspace limits.

The joke is that zipping sufficiently compressed the episode files that I found that I had ample space to put graphics on my webpages. Even plenty of screen captures—well thumbnailed down in size, of course.

I'm ridiculously proud of my little website. But it's primary function is to display its 22 jewels. The joke, of course, is that if I'd lacked the stick-to-it-iveness to finish the whole season (and how many virtual seasons get done?), then I could have easily put up half a dozen or so episodes without zipping them. It's the very fact that I completed the project that's causing problems!
