I can hazard a guess.  There are two images, one little one that you
see on the front page and one whopping big one that you see part of
when you click on the first one.  The little image is an image type 
input and therefore the coordinates of the click are transmitted to
the CGI form which then crops out a portion of the larger image
centered on those coordinates (apparently shifted if necessary to
avoid dealing with wraparound).

I was miffed to find that the data has not been updated in over 3 years
and does not include Victoria.pm, which I started in that period :-(
