Gah! There have been so many requests to the Servage server where my images are stored that it couldn't cope and died. Servage have disabled the account! The culprit is again the Gallery page with its large amount of small images.
To combat this I've made all the gallery thumbnails into a single image and created an image map for the individual links to each drawing. It's not ideal because to get such a complex image down to a sensible file size I've had to optimise it severely which has comprimised the image quality quite a bit. How I hate JPG artifacts! The benefit of doing like this is that the page now contains six images instead of a hundred. Once things calm down I shall put it back to normal but for now people will have to put up with low quality thumbnails.
