It's hardly ideal, the user needs to click on every single image
before they can see them.
Only when you actually have the feature set that way. If you don't
feel like it you just go ahead and download the whole lot.
I like this, because it leaves me as the user in total control.
And with a site-based system you would have this same ability, and more.
