[Laszlo-user] images load slower than mp3's

[James Robey]

That is something I think many projects face; mp3's can be streamed  
and started instantly while jpgs must wait until fully loaded to show.  
I don't know for a fact that is the problem but I think that an  
application POV has the server advertising pictures at a smaller  
thumbnail size and offer ui-chosen images at fullsize.

Depending on the number of images, it    might be good to preload of  
preview. If it seems like a platform bug, I'd like to hear of it.
