First of all, it's Flash-based, so you need the Flash plug-in on your 
browser. (That's strike 1 as far as I'm concerned.)

If you have the Flash plug-in (most people do; it's like one of those 
bacteria that almost everyone has and only makes a few people sick) then 
you click on one of the thumbnail images on the right labeled "Art 
Photography" or "Fine Art Issue". There's nothing to indicate these are 
clickable links - another design flaw - but they should launch a new 
window with the Flash player.

When/if the Flash player launches, you'll be treated to 
<cough>expansive<cough> 350 x 400 pixel images, which you browse by 
clicking on the corners of each "page". Very non-intuitive navigation.

Yes, lots of problems with this site. Write them and complain (or at 
least ask "how the #%@$ is your site supposed to work?"). I bitch about 
sites like this all the time but the creators will never know they've 
done something wrong if they don't hear from end users.

What's sad is that there's some *really* good photography in it.
