I suggest that it is not neccessary to submit all images for a reasonable review
of a crystallography paper.

Submission and storage of a "few" images at the start of a data collection and a
"few" from the end, along with (1) unmerged F or I, including all reflections
that are systematic absences for the claimed Space Group (2)data collection
parameters (3) data integration and scaling parameters.

This should allow for visual inspection of the data frames, which can tell a
lot! Also integration and scaling of enough reflections to compare with the
submitted total list and a good check of the Space Group and a check on
radiation damage/ crystal slippage and cell parameter changes during data
collection.

I suggest this compromise between no or all images as good for the review
process without the need to have everything online.
