Yes, I have had this problem ever since I stumbled across this site and
tried to look at the images. Only about 20-50% of the image gets displayed
before the message "Document: done" appears at the bottom of the page
and the rest of the image gets left blank. On some occasions Netscape has
also crashed on me. I've been trying for several weeks now (at different
times of day, with different www browsers, etc) and always have the same
problem. Last week I sent a message to the supposed "webmaster" at this
site describing the problem, but I never got a reply. (I also e-mailed
the photographer who took the pictures) Perhaps if you and a few others
were to notify them also, they might get the message and do something
to fix it. It's a shame it's not working, because I did manage to see
the Drosophyllum pictures (just once!) and they were excellent.
