National Parks Infinite Photo

Post by Commander McLane »

Just so that El Viejo is not the only one entertaining us with internet finds:

You know these pictures that are made up of lots and lots of small pictures? National Geographic took the concept and ran away with it.

Although it does become a little repetitive after a while, the idea is amazing, and so are the pictures from national parks. I've been getting deeper and deeper into it for about half an hour now. :)

OMG! I just discovered that my computer can do this with my own photo collection as a screensaver on the fly! :shock:

Yes, and not yet familiar with all features of Snow Leopard, it seems. :wink: (I updated only three months ago.)

:lol:

I keep finding there's loads of stuff newer versions of Ubuntu can do that the older versions can't (and I only went from Fiesty/Gutsy to Karmic - haven't even thought about upgrading again to Maverick yet)

I didn't know it could do that either.

At first I was all like, heh, there can only be so many images.

...now, a good twenty minutes later, I'm all imaged-out. CURSE YOU TECHNOLOGY!

Very cool!
