I did some more testing on other browsers and this is what I found:
1. Using the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera, I could not make the site 'crash' at any point, despite extensive clicking just about everywhere.
2. Internet Explorer 8 'crashed' consistently on all attempts to access the photo galleries from the lower menu bar, i.e. "Animals", "Animal Damage" and "Home Repairs".
The usual message showed up: "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
(This reminded me of one of the reasons I decided to use Chrome instead of IE as my default browser! It used to happen every now and then when I was using IE, but nothing like that has ever happened for me with Chrome)
So, the problem seems to be isolated to Internet Explorer (8, only?) and photo galleries. The bad news is that I don't know what actually causes the problem, much less how to solve it. I hope someone else who may be following this thread may have some suggestions.
