This is beautiful! I'm playing with it on an aging Windows machine, and I think it's smoother to view a large image via this tool than it is to open it locally and scroll across it :-) Does the processing and recompression cause any noticeable lack of fidelity, do you think? Working from a jpeg original, then converting to tiff and back again sounds like it might be problematic... -- - Andrew Gray andrew.g...@dunelm.org.uk _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list Commons-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l
