Often, I get people sending an e-mail to me telling me that when they are browsing the Photo Gallery, especially after I have updated some of the pages, that the correct pictures are not showing.

When you visit a website your browser, unless you tell it otherwise, stores certain parts of the websites you visit.

For instance it will store pictures on your hard drive temporarily, this speeds up the process of loading the web page next time you visit it. Now what happens is that if you visit a web page that's changed since a recent previous visit, you will often see the pictures of your previous visit and not the pictures that are currently on the page.

You need to refresh the web page or follow the instructions given in the following links to delete these temporary files if and when you need to.
