Perhaps tar could be told to --exclude these, so they don't take up
everyone's space and bandwidth - from my glance at 'info tar',
something like this might do it:
tar --no-wildcards-match-slash --exclude "*.*"
Ahem! Better make that:
tar -cf $FILE_OUT $IMG_PATH --no-wildcards-match-slash --exclude
"$IMG_PATH/*.*"
