They don't want you doing what you tried to do in here

wdwmagic.com has to host the pictures and pays a fee for bandwidth. They don't want people to leech of their bandwidth, and want to save it for their visitors.

Isn't Yak another word for puking? If so, its an interesting name for a restaurant.

UPDATE

Yak and Yeti set to open in November 2007

Disney have just released the following information, giving an opening month of November for the Yak and Yeti Restaurant.

New Dining Options at Disney's Animal Kingdom: Beginning in November, guests who travel to the land of Asia in Disney's Animal Kingdom will get a real taste of that exotic part of the world with the opening of Yak & Yeti Restaurant. Inspired by the western Himalayan foothills in India and Nepal, this Asian-fusion establishment will offer table-service dining and a full-service bar, as well as quick-service food and beer-garden options, plus retail offerings from Pan-Asia ranging from silk purses, incense and saris to fine teapots. It will seat 250 inside for table-service dining and 350 in a quick-service courtyard.

Liking the sound of this places more and more, especially the theme.

Anyone else disturbed by the name of a restaurant with the name YAK in it?!

I just don't know about eating at a place called YAK! I have seen other eateries with bad names and it's because of people with English as a second language. DISNEY doesn't have that excuse!

It does sound good; I'll be interested to read what others think of it. As others have noted though, the name is rather unfortunate. In our family lingo, yak is commonly used as slang for vomit.

I, for one, have been looking forward to the Yak & Yeti opening. Dining has been limited at Animal Kingdom so hopefully this will be a great addition.

Same here, it's just as you put: unfortunate. You would think Disney would have gave it a better name. Disney for the most part is very careful when naming something. We will see what happens.
