Neither you nor Rick Merrill have described what problem you are seeing.

The only problem I saw was that the images are apparently from a server
different from the server with the surrounding page.  The pages are all
from www.google.com.  However, he thumbnails are from t0.gstatic.com,
t1.gstatic.com, etc; and the large images are from
www.seriouswheels.com, img.dailymail.co.uk, fancytuning.com, and
elsewhere.  Thus, I had to change my image preferences from "Accept
images that come from the originating server only" (my usual setting) to
"Accept all images".
