Would it be possible to create the CD as a gallery style web site and get
them to browse it off the CD? I assume that you could then pass the header
information...

It sounds like you're on a PC though, so I'd do two things, firstly check if
they are on Macs, and if so provide them with the information they'd need to
save the files. Then if they still do require a CD make sure that they are
able to read a CD-ROM you provide. (It normally isn't a problem providing
Mac users with PC disks, though it can be going the other way.)
