>>214946What a way to waste bandwidth.
You know you just prompted a quite contrary thought. The OP is what? 70 pictures wide by 120 high. If someone already has the images on their computer you could transmit the mosaic as a super compressed format with just a header that says number wide and scaling ratio and list the filenames in order, then text compress that. mosaic viewer would uncompress and display in proper arrangement. 70*120=8400 % ls -1 | head -8400 >8400-filenames % l 8400-filenames -rw-rw-r-- 1 180K 2007-09-27 03:36 8400-filenames % gzip 8400-filenames % l 8400-filenames.gz -rw-rw-r-- 1 47K 2007-09-27 03:36 8400-filenames.gz
47k bandwidth transferred to make huge mosaic.
