My "bountifulbaby.com" site just lets Comanche serve the images that I 
keep on the site.  Comanche and Seaside co-exist quite nicely inside the 
Squeak image, and Comanche can serve 'em just fine.

However, most of the images used by the "bountifulbaby.com" site do not 
actually reside at the "bountifulbaby.com" location.  They instead 
reside on our "bountifulbaby.net" site, which in turn is hosted by 
Earthlink, and (probaby) is served via Apache.

That keeps the bandwidth coming from "bountifulbaby.com" quite minimal, 
as it throws most of the bandwidth load onto Earthlink's servers instead 
of my server.
