I'm glad you found the solution, but being a Google crawler, it would
likely respect a robots.txt file with Disallow: images/*, which if it
worked would allow you to remove an if clause from being evaluated on every
page load.
You may have already tried it. But i have a feeling you'll start to find
more that are after this directory. When i was at an image heavy start up,
we had every one imaginable.
Best,
Jeff
