Thanks all for the comments =) I'm glad you like the pictures. AND, I'm thrilled your commenting more on the pictures than you are the design of the gallery, even though they have a symbiotic relationship.
I'm glad that the problem is not affecting everyone, that's somewhat of a relief, but I'm still confused as to why the problem pops up for certain people and not others. It must definitely be a caching problem. I wouldn't think that it would be though, since the thumbnails on the bottom of the page are the full quality image scaled down to a thumbnail size. I figured that would solve any preloading issues, but perhaps it doesn't. Thanks Joel for the comment. I'll look into that and see if I can figure the problem out, I definitely think a caching issue is where the problem lies. -Dave On Jun 29, 11:16 am, "Joel Birch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Actually, I have run into a similar problem before.
