Is it just me, or does Fancybox occasionally take forever to load
images. I was previously using fancyzoom, and the images which are
under 100kb appeared almost instantly. Now that i've comverted to
Fancybox, some images load instantly, while others which are around
the same file size, can sit loading for 30 seconds before ever
appearing. A few times I wondered if the image was ever going to load
at all. I'm wondering if its the google api that is getting
congested. If anyone has experienced this, or has a fix for this,
please share. Thank!!

wow, 30 seconds it's a lot .... I have images over 500k that would
load faster (in fancybox)
it might be either a cache or http requests issues
(hope you know how to run yslow in Firefox)

try also loading jQuery and fancybox js and css files from your server
(or an alternate server you thinks is fast to load from)
