You mean, why do I let Earthlink host my pictures?

Bandwidth.  Pure and simple.  I only have a 300k uplink speed coming 
from my site.  But, minus the pictures, 300k is quite good.

Or, did you mean, why did I ever set Comanche up to integrate static 
content with Seaside?

Well, because I didn't always have Earthlink hosting my pictures.
