Technically speaking, it's possible to generate them at a variety of small
sizes -- it's basically just some pipefitting and scripting with pnmtools.
But then again it was just a little experiment page -- something from the
back burner at lugnet.com.

Oops, sounds like there's been a bit of a misunderstanding(?). When I wrote
"here's a page..." above, it wasn't to say "here are a bunch of images to
take/use" but rather (literally) to say (to Ben, to address his question)
simply "here is the existance of a page" which demonstrates that download
speed isn't too bad for lots of images when they're very small. In other
words, it was a technical demonstration.
I didn't mention this before because it didn't seem relevant, but that page
was created on August 21, 1998 (at a different URL back then) and was simply
something lying around on the back burner that happened to be relevant to the
discussion (Ben's question in particular). Although it probably didn't take
more than a couple hours to make back then, it wasn't something assembled
yesterday on-the-fly for any particular purpose or suggestion.

| (...) On a much lighter note, I really liked how the page loaded. I am guessing that the order in which the images appeared on the page was not caused by anything other than load times, but it was cool to watch gaps appear in the lines of minifigs (...)
