If you want, you can make duplicates of any photos by selecting a  
photo and using "Duplicate (Command/D)" under the Photo menu. Then,  
make an Album and drag these pictures into it. Then edit to your  
heart's content. When you're done, just upload the Album.

If you use some other program to compress the images, you can also  
bring those back into iPhoto using "Add to Library (Command/O)" under  
the File menu -- or just dragging them into the iPhoto main window  
from a Finder folder. These will show up as a new Roll.

To compress within iPhoto you can use this trick. Select your photos  
and click on the Email button. Then you get an option for compressing  
in three different settings. The photos are put into an email  
message. You can then save them to the desktop (I don't think you can  
drag them off the unsent message). Then import them back into iPhoto  
and you'll have a compressed duplicate.
