I sent a message to Paul Andrews about his image size.

Have you considered something that might group the moreover and 
newsisfree feeds into some sort of group?

Also, how about putting the feed name into the title="" attribute?

It loads in IE55sp2 but not all images show up.  Reloads do appear to 
be adding more of them but it's hit/miss.
