This really is a gallery and not a picture archive. We've tried to collect some of our favorite pictures, and scan in some of our own, to give you a feel for the variety of anime. You'll also get a good idea of what kind of anime we like. For a much more comprehensive picture archive try Venice... one of the more popular anime FTP sites.
The gallery is devided into a series of wings, roughly one for each film, series, or topic which has a serious number of images associated with it. At the end is a miscellaneous wing for all those images that we like, but which didn't get a wing of their own.
Each wing contains a list of related pictures, the size of each full image, and a short description. Certain pictures are also accompanied by a thumbnail image, depending on whether I have gotten around to creating one and whether the picture can take being severely shrunk. Most thumbnail images are either one quarter the size of the original (in both width and height) or one-eighth.
Most pages will also include some background, just in case you wanted to know where these pictures came from.
All pictures are stored in JPEG format to save disk space, and bandwidth. You will either need to be using a browser with built in JPEG viewing (like Netscape Navigator, or Internet Explorer) or have a external viewer (WinJPEG and LView are two popular shareware viewers for Microsoft Windows).
There are lots of inline images on these pages! If you are running through a dial-up (or otherwise slow) line then you may want to turn off the loading of inline images by your browser. Look at the text decriptions or load the inline images on a per-page basis instead.
If the background images are making the text hard to see then increase the font size. All browsers that will show you the backgrounds allow you to set the font size (as far as I know). I have tried to make the backgrounds clean enough so they don't cause problems, but I can't possibly compensate for all possible browser/resolution/font combinations.
