It looks nice. It does take a couple of seconds, (but I guess that is to be expected with dealing with images). I guess seeing your example, it seems that I can go with the filesystem. But do you use the getimagezise function? do you set the width and height for the IMG tag dynamically, or you don't use the image function and just have the IMG tags already set in stone?
