Why can I only download the graphics Mathematica code that generates the graphics, instead of the graphics themselves?
An evaluated notebook that contains all visualizations for a single function has an average size of about 300 MB (the size of the notebooks of some functions approaches up to 1 GB). Even when all the Postscript graphics are replaced by bitmap graphics, the average size of the notebooks is about 15 MB. Downloading such large documents is not practical. But each of the visualization notebooks can be easily evaluated and will produce all the graphics shown on the web pages. Mathematica can also export these graphics in various formats.
