Thanks, I've tested both ways and they work (I also put some notes here, 
in case others are interested)

There is a minor problem though. The figures are not centered vertically 
on the page, instead it's placed at the top, starting (I guess) where 
text would normally start. 

For a really big picture this can look ugly, since you're just leaving the 
header-space alone.

I tried adding \vspace{-1cm} and \vfill at different places but it still 
starts at the same space.

I've also tested using \setlength{\headheight}{0cm} and that moves the 
figure higher up to the page, with the drawback that you have to remember 
to set the \headheight to whatever it was before you used it. It also 
requires a bit of manual fiddling to make it look nice. I'll try and 
also set \headsep etc to zero and then try \vfill to see if that improves 
things.
