    Pretty fascinating stuff. I didn't expect the whole thing to be run on C-64s.

    The photo tour has one of the worst interfaces I've seen for viewing photos. Hiding half of the photo caption by default? Who comes up with this idiocy?

    One small redeeming feature is that they haven't hijacked the right-click with a bloody Lightbox script.
