Hi, Rexford.
Based on this need, I'm building a downloader tool (as a volunteer; this
isn't done in my WMF role) to help create such collections of
reduced-resolution (any size you want) images for a given Commons
category. It's not quite ready for use, but in the meantime I've created
the collection you wanted in the size you specified. It is 157 megabytes
in size, and you can download it (in a 7-Zip[1] archive) from here[2].
I hope this helps, and let me know if you run into other issues.

[1] if you don't know/have a decompressor yet, see
http://7-zip.org/download.html for binaries for all platforms.

I have enough space, just the connection to transfer
onto my space is the
issue.
But I think 3 Gig shouldn't be an issue to work with.

Thanks. We'll really love it if you help get
it up and running for us.
The category is:

Wiki_Loves_Africa_2014_in_Ghana
As regards resolution, a 1080x720 will be great. Upon picking the ones
interested, we can hunt for their full res later.
It's actually easier to grab the full res one, so unless there are disk
space problems I would prefer to grab that.
The issue in Ghana is bandwidth, not space.
