Convert all to jpeg and you won't need yenc encoding.

Hello,
yEncoding is a transmission protocol and has nothing whatever to do
with the file format.


My only point for the OP is that, for example, planez122.bmp even though
yenc'd is, at 2.3 MB, a preposterously humongeous file. Decoded, it shrinks
only by 50 kB. If posted as a jpeg file, it is a svelte 155 kB and worth a
look.
On top of that I've a feeling that is not really the
photographer with his copyright on the image, Baldur Sveinsson.
