Would it be possible to make a radioactivity camera? I guess not because it doesn’t refract?

The trig function just varies the distribution of the random sampling to mimic temporal variations due to wind.

If this became widespread wouldn’t this negate some of the positive side-effects of creating more light reflection on earth? https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190220-how-artificially...

The precomp step will speed up significantly and move to pkg install time in the upcoming 1.6 release. There's a beta out if you want to try

Just noticed that chrome allows the filter css3 property to be exercised on street view. I assume this will be adopted by the other platforms too? But I'm not a particularly educated programmer, so I don't know the likelihood!

Chrome seems to be the only browser that allows the -webkit-filter to be applied to the street view object. -webkit-filter, or filter or whatever you want to call it does work on other browsers, but it only works with the street view window in chrome

Thanks! Glad to hear it.

Ah! Thanks for saying. I can't figure out why, but the jquery.animate-colors.js scripts that I'm using are failing on my site, but work on the demo page at: http://www.bitstorm.org/jquery/color-animation/

Odd

EDIT: Found it! Firefox couldnt handle the jquery transition from no background-color, to a color. It needed a background-color to be set first.

I wanted to send 2 pages to a friend side by side, and couldnt find a site that did it.

Feedback appreciated!

A lot of the larger websites don't work due to cross-domain restrictions for iFrames, and the block errors aren't standardised unfortunately so I've not got an error catch yet. Saying that, the majority of pages do work!
