I just bought my first domain a few days ago, and I’m becoming a little concerned. When I load images via a Flash photo gallery, every now and again they are distorted (usually rectangular areas whose brightness/tint/location has been altered). I’ve never had this problem running the same photo gallery on my school’s web space. This issue arose the night I bought the domain. Could anyone tell me the cause, or anything that I could do to correct the problem? Is it a Flash thing or a host thing? Or neither?

Here are 3 examples of distorted images. Note that the images saved in the domain are not damaged. If I clear my cache and reload, they are fine. I think the problem is at least partially my computer…the images are much more likely to have errors if I’m doing a lot of things while they load. Still, I don’t see why that should cause them to distort. Take longer to load, sure, but look like the images below, I dunno.
