In the text of the arrow the internal number is deposited as well as a short descriptional text. The cursor positioning within the pictures corresponds to the table, whereby however e.g. at the end of a table row next to the right is not the beginning of the row, it is the beginning of the left picture a row below. Thus you run also in a circle in the whole table, but you pass all pictures without going back on main gallery. This method was selected, to avoid the loading of the compressed pictures, because in despite of compressed files loading up of so many objects take longer time.

Due to multiple misuse, the galleries are equipped with a little copy protection. Photos are only released with approval and a small donation, the request in the photo description itself serves for this (the picture number is also included in the subject).

These libraries and script files are always the same, even in the selection galleries, so it is advantageous here if your browser hasn't load all the files every time.
