The idea here is to view photos, not have to deal with overcoming computer issues. When a web site doesn't work simply or easily, I just leave. If there's something one must know in order to use a site, then the owner of that site should let the viewer know what that is.
Flickr is a PITA for some people - it seems macromedia flash based, or some such, and it's slow to load and clunky to use with a slow dialup connection, and this Tilbury Hotel site just doesn't allow easy, comfortable viewing.
If someone's gotta be a geek to use a site, has to know what a web proxy
is, be half way a programmer, then, pardon my French, screw 'em. The world
is full of pics.
Good web design means making the site (therefore the information) available to the greatest number of viewers, easily and simply.
Ahhh, Shel,
You always WERE an avant-garde thinker! Carry on...

If you're enough of a geek to be able to use a web proxy (I use Proxomitron) you can. In fact, you can opt out of *anything* a web site tries to do. I don't allow them to open new browser windows, for example, because I find it really annoying.
