Take a ride on Heavy Metal

All day long, all-American blond kid Billy (while outwardly calm) was panting with excitement, counting the hours until he could ride his bike down that special back road he'd learned about...where he could unleash what he excitedly thought of as his "secret identity"... and ride back as a blonde biker of a very different kind..

The blonde looks like she'd be interesting to look at, but I can't get more than 20 percent of the picture to load before loading absolutely stops. It's like there's suddenly a 15 seconds-then-abort rule now in place.

Tried to fix the art...still having trouble?

I'm talking to Femur. I'm suddenly having problems with both TG- sites.

More details as they become available.

I managed to get the full picture of the blonde to load once. She's very attractive.

Thanks for trying to help.

I know nobody's in protective headgear (or any- gear) and it's all unsafe etc; but there's something to be said for willfully ignoring all that while speculating on occasion?

The part of my mind that imagines being the blonde model
imagines reacting to the comment "She's very attractive"
(and feeling a nice thrill).

UPDATE: Through PM, Femur's tech-savvy friend suggested that I'd somehow got my WINSOCK2.dll corrupted. After poking around Microsoft Support, I managed to fix it. Thanks, Femur (and friend).
