Condo looks great in Moy's artwork but boy he made Supes look young didn't he? Good job on the colors LL. The coever mock up came out great also.

Great job on all of these Loser! I also particularly liked the Vi and Jeckie that you colored.

I'm enjoying these, don't get me wrong. It's just that these pages have so many large files linked to them that this one (page 19), for example, has taken over 15 minutes to load. Yes, I'm one of the primitives who still only has 52Kbps dial-up.
So I can't scan it more than once a week. Even a second visit later in the day means that these have expired from my browser cache. (I only keep that at 10 MB.)
I'm glad that Loser is using THUMBnails, but as others have pointed out, their benefits in easier display don't mean that they take any less time to load -- the originals are sized down by LW.net.
I hate to say it, but the only way around this is to create (and host) thumbnails oneself, making a 200-to-300-pixel .gif version, which would be displayed with a link to the original this way (change { } to [ ]):
It'd be worth thinking about, for a page that has as many images as this one.

For me something like this might not be a bad idea. I have enough space available where it wouldn't be much of a problem to host the additional files, but I know some of the folks using free image hosting might run into a space crunch trying to host two separate files for each image they want to host here.
I'll think about doing that from now on.
