Maybe I misunderstood his problem, but it seemed to me Dominic was not so much
bothered by the number of SQL calls than by the fact that short of having field
groups, the request will fetch the image (one megabyte) even though all the user
wants at this point is read the description, and then decide if they want to
view the image.
