Some categories are very large and we might do better by dividing them. Also, most images address more than a single topic. Finally, we might consider presenting the categories as questions. Images within categories are arranged by artist, alphabetically. Image titles are linked to the htmls.
Also, if this is useful for your commentary, please let me know and I'll send an update when it's ready.
