Grant @grantmcdermott, I noticed that the README figures account for much of the tinyplot tarball size. The uncompressed figures/ folder is 3.3M (4800 x 3000 pixels each). I think that this is more than really needed.

Changing the options to dpi = 100 (from 300) reduces the size of each image to 1600 x 1000 pixels and the folder size becomes 556K . My feeling is that this should be sufficient and the images still look good.

If you disagree, feel free to simply reject the PR and delete the branch.
