Details:

>From http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.patches/2140 , where you
will find changelogs for this and another patch.

patch-http provides two new options, --min-size (-s)
and --max-size (-M), although the shortcuts could
obviously be changed.  Non-HTML files that don't fit
these constraints (expressed in kB) will simply not be
retrieved.  This relies on the Content-Length HTTP
header and will not work for FTP. This is quite useful
when retrieving jpeg images from a site to avoid
thumbnails for instance, as explained in the related
documentation paragraph.
