OK. I agree with you. The idea behind my site was to help people who are
trying to locate hard-to-describe pieces, and need to visually browse
through the catalog.

Again, I agree. I was just brainstorming ideas on how to reduce the impact
of having a few (40 to 50) pages with a large amount of graphic data on
each page.

I promise, I won't eliminate anything. I *might* reorganize and balance
some of the categories at some point. But right now the category
information is pulled automatically from the LDraw part files, so changing
any of that represents real work. Which I need to avoid too much of. ;)
Speaking of which, my site is several updates out-of-date. I need to go
upload an update.
