Hi Toggle top,
The previous answers cover all points. Actually I have a broad band connection therefore the pics pop up quickly in my computer. I can understand that with a normal speed they can take a while.
In any case you should correctly see the photos after few seconds, if not there is a problem. Try to refresh the site more time, the photos should appear.
You have to install a java engine to see the slide show with the Luger, historical pics and stuff like this.
Try again after installing the java engine and let me know.
Ciao
Mauro
