These are all coming from the same source, I think, and are not
related; someone is abusing the facility as a private distribution
area for pictures.  I have (I think) blocked that IP address from
contributing any more for now, but that is no real long-term solution,
since most IP addresses on the internet are assigned dynamically and
change from time to time.

So, in addition, I've added a "reject" feature to the screenshot
upload facility.  In the future, if a "screenshot" is uploaded that is
obviously not relevant to OCAL, anyone on the list should be able to
reject it, as follows:

 1.  Visit the following URI:
     http://openclipart.org/cgi-bin/upload_screenshot.cgi?reject=NNN
     (Where NNN is the number of the screenshot, e.g., reject=101 will
     reject screenshot number 101.)

 2.  There is no step 2.

I have tested this on my desktop system, and it works there, but I
haven't tested it on the site yet, so there could be a permissions
issue or something to prevent it from working.  We'll find out next
time there's a rejectable screenshot contributed.
