Title: This is clever!
Post by Spannerdemon on Jul 13th, 2006, 11:39am
This was sent to me by a friend earlier today.

Left click on any square, and then again. As the picture grows, it becomes more and more interesting. must have taken days to put this together, but very clever.
It seems to be virtually endless.

Enjoy  :D

Didn't work for me. It just says 'click to run an activeX control on this web page'

Actually.. no  ;D

All they probably did was use a color to picture conversion, where one specific color corresponds to a specific picture. If they limit the colors to 256, then that shouldn't be too much work. Then they let some computer program replace the each pixel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel) with a full picture. Would take a couple of hours by a skilled person  :)

Basicly that it's done more or less automaticly. It's not that much work to create  ;D

Still nothing...just a black square with white edge, on a black screen & a box that says "click to run an activeX control on this web page" ???

Just to get a bit of ideea how it works, just don'y move the mouse, and only click it in the same position, you'll se that the image repeats

Hi Jonnycab:

You possibly don't have Macromedia installed, which will let you see this.

Either click on the black screen that you can see, (that's what it's looking for, an active control),  and it will install it for you, or get it here: (Free)

http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi

Then try it again. Well worth a look.

I haven't forgotten your help, and the new ECU continues to run great!  Thanks again    :)  :)

Now I'm getting confused. I clicked spanners link & clicked 'Install now'. It goes to the download page & the same box appears that says 'click to run an activex control on this page'. I click on it & thats it...nothing happens, no download, no nothing. ???

SHOULD work. If you've downloaded the macromedia player, and then Clicked (on the black box), try double clicking as well,  when it tells you to, it should start to load. Does take a minute or so, so perhaps you haven't waited quite long enough?

Can't think what else to suggest.  :o

Maybe security settings on a firewall or virus scan are preventing it from running, or browser security settings are too high to allow it.
