Loading image in lower quality in WP7?

Is it possible when loading an image from Isolated Storage to load it in lower quality format? I'm looping through a list of file paths that point to an image in Isolated Storage.

For example here is my code right now:

myObjectsList[i].ImageSrc = PictureDecoder.DecodeJpeg(imageStream);

Eventually the code runs fine, but it takes extremely long to load just 6 images and I'm hitting around 250mb (which is way over the limit for lower end devices). So what I was trying to figure out is if it's possible to load the images in a lower quality format. Or of course if anyone has any other suggestions I'd appreciate your feedback.

When you save your images create thumbnails of your images and load them for preview. This is a standard solution for this kind of problems.

I don't know if it's possible to load lower quality images, but it won't help you with your memory issue.
