I'll concur. Christian's site loads (after a short delay to compose the background/framing) with a quick little "pop" Imagine that.... thumbnails that draw in less than 10 seconds. That's at least a usable site. Hell, the LARGE images load faster than some other people's (why mention names?) thumbnails.
