I find it ridiculous to click on a thumbnail and have it become a slightly larger thumbnail. As I new member of the pure silver list i've seen many of those this weekend. Anyone whose ever taken a look at my website will see I'm a big fan of letting them see the merch. The sites out there of commercial / fine art photography which are not chintzy with the scans are out there but few and far between. Are they worrying about the slowness of your modem or are you going to steal their images do they think? I applaud Anthony's generosity and excellence of design of his website which seems to have both thumbnails as well as medium and larger scans... and the images themselves are well worth it. My DSL by the way has no problem with these scans (has a high sucking power) but not everyone has that yet. If they didn't I'd guess they'd learn to not click to make a big slow for them to load image. But why should others not get that opportunity if they have the capacity?
