Also, it seems rather obvious that the "updating to remove anomalies" phenomena is just a difference in resolutions.
It appears they load low resolution photos first, then exchange them with higher resolution ones shortly after. See how in all of the "before" pictures, the pixel size is larger and the whole thing appears "blockier"?
Added: I've noticed this when viewing any image on the internet that is high-res as well. If my connection is slow, the browser will display a lower resolution image and then in a couple of seconds, it will suddenly show the full resolution. This may be the case in some of these, rather than them even posting two different images.
Apparently this is done with interlaced gifs, or progressive jpegs.
