Jostein, On occasion, somebody here will link to the gallery for a photo. I watch it post a gallery header page then spin up more internally. Finally, it will look like it is going to open something, but no, wait, just kidding, not yet! When a picture opens it is nice. I went thru all 100 of yours and they are beautiful (and a major accomplishment). But I'm on a high speed line in the USA suburbs and the gallery is too slow. It's in the design on the Pentax side, not in the internet distribution side. Regards, Bob S.
