Well, that's no good! Do you wait for the second image to download? It
will take as long as the first, and can seem like a long time waiting
with the mouse over the image. When it has loaded once, you should be
able to switch instantly between the two versions as long as they are in
the browser cache.
What browser are you using?

I tend to overdo, rather than underdo, images like this, so one may see
what's possible and imagine the place in between where they would like
to have the image.
