Check out the pictures! Note that while the pictures are great, the downloads are SLOW even on the mirror site, which has better connectivity, because the "thumbnails" aren't really thumbnails, just rescaled, via HTML, images of the full size images. That means instead of loading about (for the pictures from the 19th) 200kB worth of thumbnails, you download about 4.5 MB worth of stuff. It would REALLY help if the "thumbnails" were really thumbnails.
