If that's the case then the full images are being loaded and displayed as
thumbnails. Yikes! That's the absolute wrong way to do things.

I would recommend reducing the originals to the size of thumbnails and save
them as separate pictures. Then you can quickly load the thumbnails. When one
clicks on a thumbnail THEN you can load the full picture in.
