A while back, I posted sequences from Mariner 6 and 7. I wasn't fond of them as a movie at the time, but they have grown on me - they have a turn-of-the century nickelodeon look to them.

Ted,
Very cool! Have you considered registering the images so they stay centered in the animation? -------------------- Space Enthusiast Richard Hendricks

Ted, Very cool! Have you considered registering the images so they stay centered in the animation? Yes, I am working on it, but I am about to go on vacation, so it could be a while. If anyone wants to take a crack at it, be my guest! (I cleaned these images, but registering them has proven a big pain.) -------------------- |
