Lots of interesting photos here of transformers, street lighting, and other electrical distribution equipment from Australia & New Zealand:

Paul, what's the story,mate?.
You holding out on us?. [Linked Image]

Hmm... The images I included in the post aren't showing up, but I've just discovered that the website in question doesn't allow hotlinking, which explains that mystery.

I've changed those to hyperlinks, but you'll have to click on "Open in new window"to bypass the hotlink problem.

The rest of the site is working fine for me at the moment (1:10 p.m. GMT). Maybe it was down for a while.

Let me know how you get on. [Linked Image]

It accuses me of "hotlinking" no matter where I try to connect to the picture from as my browser doens't give the refering page details for security reasons!

Does the link to the home page not work either?

I just tried it again under different browsers and it's fine with both IE5 and Netscape6.

It's just over the top copyright protection.

Basically it sniffs your browser to see where it's been last and what page refered you to the picture.

My browser will return blank on both of those due to security settings.

Sorry, just kidding.

Guys,
If you enter the site through the first link that Paul posted above, you will be able to view all of the pictures on the site from a list.
Be aware though, you will need your best Pop-up ad stopper active when you visit this site. [Linked Image]
Some interesting overhead lines pics in this collection.

Oddly enough you don't get the hassles with th Pop-ups, if you visit there with Firefox. [Linked Image]
