[iaoa-infrastructure] cosmetics of the website

[Laure Vieu]

thanks for this hint.

no, the two images (landscape is not new btw) are of good quality,
something around 2000x1400.
it is the (default) settings that render those images at 880x290.

should I change this default?

I do not know what is the general policy in these matters, keep it light
or keep it good?
