I stumbled upon some completely random folder on the internets and found this. I guess it's worthy being posted in /hr/. Recompressed from 14 MB in IrfanView at Q=34 to meet the board's size limit.

BTW, what viewer would you suggest for pictures like this? Irfan tries to load the whole thing into RAM, which makes it practically unviewable on my machine (256 MB, hello disk cache). There must be some which loads hueg pictures "sequentially" and does not take 5 minutes to move by one row.

Just an FYI, this has been posted on /hr/ 3 times in the last 2 weeks. 4 if you count the stupid photoshop from one of the threads.

Well, fuck me. I don't monitor /hr/ day and night, but at least it's the only copy atm.
So, what's the real sauce and story behind this pic?

I use ACDSee, warez of course, which opened the 14 MB image in 0,6 seconds using 18 MB of RAM, 2,25 seconds for 100 % with 274 MB RAM. Real problems start with pictures over 100 MB :O

Ain't gonna share. Just Google for satellite images, images from Mars etc and check out the tiff files.

learn the basics... every program needs to load 100% of the decompressed picture to RAM if you want smooth scrolling.

Easy solution = BUY MOAR RAM

:( But their board only supports SD-RAM, which isn't made anymore... So they'd have to buy a new motherboard. :( Whole new PC. (Whipes them off of the map)

If it's not made anymore it's antique and it's cheap from any 2nd hand store

It's funny when you say SDRAM, because DDR is SDRAM too. My motherboard suppors SDRAM! DDR-SDRAM!

I've heard the Gimp can open the really huge files (ie, 100MB) but I've never tried it myself.

It really can, really really huge files, because it uses a swap file and moves part of the image in memory for viewing.
