All right,

I've worked a bit more on the web site. The design didn't really
change since the last iteration.

It's just that the image zooming is a bit finicky. The readymade
scripts for that on the web all seem to be far less than perfect (e.g.
wrong maths for the scaling, no provision for long captions or even
loading the large images at all times, rather than on demand).

So I looked around, tried to understand other people's JavaScript and
puzzled together a solution which at least doesn't distort images,
displays long captions and only loads the images when needed now. It's
probably still far from perfect (and the experience is 'less than
stellar' but not outright broken when viewed in IE), but it may do the
job.

There were remarks on the zooming speed in an earlier iteration. As
this is based on the same script (fancyzoom), it'd be good if you
could test that again. The speed is fine on my MacBook and a bit slow
on the iPod touch (but I didn't expect much speed on the iPod anyway).

I'm seeing a little div at the top when I (re)load the page. It goes away when I click on a screenshot. I think it's a caption.
