Could these be "fed" into Peeron, and linked into set inventories?  A few
set inventories there now have actual pictures of specific heads.

Or (shameless plug follows), set appearance information for many of the
minifigures which have these faces is at three minifig reference sites:

Locker 99 Minifig reference at http://home.att.net/~locker99/index.htm
Minimundo! at http://www.minimundo.de/
BrickSet at http://huw.brinkster.net/ (use the minifig browser)

Speaking of it, the minifig browser has not worked for me for a while. I hit
"go" and it never goes anywhere. Any idea why?

Hmm, it works for me.  I click on the "minifig browser" part of the
navigation bar at the top, and then I get a drop down menu (left
side of page) to pick a theme.  I pick a theme and, voila, the
Brickset info on minifigs for that theme appears.
