Huh, you're right, there is Java in there - I had no idea, it looked like simple image files. Couple questions for more savvy people -
1. Why would the author do that for static images?
2. Is there any way I can see that going forwards to warn people? I'm running Chrome/Win7, and didn't even notice.
I looked up the source and there it is -
<P><CENTER> <APPLET CODE=hoteling1 HEIGHT=100 WIDTH=400></APPLET>
</CENTER>
But it really makes no sense why the author would do that - it's just a straightforward, somewhat boring image. Thoughts?
- nfriedly 17y agoPerhaps it was an attempt to stop people from "stealing" his images.. or perhaps the author just doesn't know any better...

- catch23 17y agoThey're quite valuable images. I'm going to steal them for my myspace page.
