Hey, take a look at the following URL to see a really interesting Gigapan! The URL is: http://share.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=21222
I really like the concept of zooming into an image like this, but it sure looks "blocky" and blurry if you go to deep with the scroll zoom.
sorry for that late answer, my old WinXP-PC crashed 3 days ago. Got a new vista machine now but fractint and other old DOS programs don´t run anymore.. You´re right, that fratal had to be uploaded as .jpg with a pretty high compression factor. Anyway, a deep zoom in Fractint is much better than any gigapixel-sized .jpg!
let´s make a fractal "contest" at gigapan.org :)
Speaking of fractal contests, what happened to the web pages where the "Benoit Mandelbrot Fractal Art Contest" for 2006 and 2007 were being displayed?? All that is left is an empty directory space:
http://www.fractalartcontests.com/2006/exhibit.php and http://www.fractalartcontests.com/2007/
maybe one could re-generate the best fractals of that former contest in a very large size (that takes a lot of time, 50 Megapixel = minimun size) and opload them to te gigapan.org site :).
Cheers, Guy
