Babylon 5 Pictures
This area contains various images from and about Babylon 5. The images are divided into four categories:
Characters
Pictures of the people and aliens of Babylon 5.
Effects
Outer-space scenes and other effects shots.
Misc
Miscellaneous pictures (e.g. advertisements.)
Scenes
Scenes from specific episodes.
Each of the categories contains its own index file as well as a pictorial index with miniature versions of all the pictures. If you're just browsing, consider downloading the index files first so you don't waste time with pictures you're not interested in.
On the other hand, if you want to waste a lot of time, there is an alternate interface to this directory with inline miniatures of the images. Getting the index file is usually faster, since it's in JPEG format and is fairly compact.
