10.5.8 can't zip files and compress is grayed out.  how can i zip 40 large jpgs?

I don't get the option of compressing or archiving files in finder window.  My mac at work has the archive function in the box with the cog. Something missing on my imac?

i don't want 3rd party stuff on my mac.  i seems that I can compress or archive files if they haven't been imported through iphoto, but once they're in iphoto, i can't compress them or archive them.
In the finder window, when I start going deeper through the various directories, and i get to iphotos, it opens and doesn't let me get any further into the finder directories. any way i can see filenames only instead of having iphoto open when I get to it?
sorry for such a stupid sounding situation and not being able to exactly describe the issue.  My mac at work is so easy to use and never launches iphoto.  Thank everyone for your help.
