Same here Ed, I tryed the starphoto site and all appears to work OK there, must be the weather.

This happens from time to time with StarPhoto, and it's due to the fact that it sends the images through a mangling process to add their banner to the top of any picture being served anywhere other than within starphoto itself.  Sometimes when it's overloaded the image download just fails at your browser and appears as a broken link.

That's also why starphoto images can be so slow to download, too.

There are some other alternatives to StarPhoto around that don't do this.  Anyone got any recommendations?

cheers
