In fact I think that you will find that no site houses the thumb-nail images, I
expect that they are generated on-the fly, one way to test this is for Bill to
temporarily remove an image from the PUG site which is known to have been
indexed and then to search for it again (I don't know how caches may affect
this experiment though).
