Sorry, I didn't explain the upload process.
What I do is create a complete new HTML page containing the pictures. No
problems here.
The page in question (http://www.samurdermysteries.co.za/gal.htm) doesn't
contain any pictures at all. It is a page of links. On this page I put new
link to the newly created page containing the pictures. It is this page of
links that has the problem. The newly created link is not visible to
visitors who recently visited the page.
