when kek went down, how come you can still see the thumbnails of the pictures?

This. Phuks has a separate domain (and server?) just for this purpose, check the link @PMYA posted there.

I'm not sure if they're stored on another potato. @Polsaker, are they?

I did, and upvoted... just wondering if those could replace the pics in the future now... wouldn't that be a good insurance?

The thumbnails would not make good replacements, they're severely shrunken versions of the source images and would not take well to being blown up. They're shrunken to conserve disk space. It takes an image, that could be in the tens of KB to into the MBs somewhere down to like... 10KB.
