I'm looking to see if there are any PD programs that will allow you to view 24-Bit images on the Amiga, I'm intrigued by all the Toaster Pics on abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov, but I can't find anything to view them with. :( -Jas -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel Jalkut -- Amiga guy | "And didn't I read that these devices snozer@toast.santa-cruz.ca.us /// | go two way and everything I do or say 408-429-8628 -- Day /// | is goin' on a tape somewhere right now 408-423-6926 -- Night \XX/ | planted in my cavities?" -- LARD -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things have all been rearanged and the Toaster Pics I created are now in /amiga/graphics/images/ilbm. A 24bit viewer/converter is unnecessary because I posted them in 24bit and HAM format. Following is the pics.README file that accompany the images (note: the 24bit images are 768 x 480).... All of these images were created with Lightwave 3D, the rendering and animation software supllied with the Video Toaster. They are all lo-res overscan HAM images and took an average of about 30 minutes to render in 24bit 1536 x 960 resolution except for Blender and Tape which took 6.5 and 4 hours respectively because of shadow generation. The Teapot rendered in a speedy two minutes. Blender: This was my contest entry into AV Video's Amiga design contest. It consists of various forms of media being jammed into an osterizer. Highlights of this image include glass, shadows, a very nice looking model of a compact disc (CD), marble counter top, and a digitized background image (my kitchen). This image is my favorite. City: An industrial city scape. Shows off the use of smoke (for smoke stacks) and depth cued fog. It is a still from an animation I am working on for Siggraph. F15: A camoflaged (sp?) F15 flying over a field of trees. Of special note are the fractal noise clouds and the flame exhaust of the F15. Office: An office scene with various objects illuminated by a translucent hanging lamp and a lit candle. Tape: A reel to reel tape deck and synth keyboard in front of three colored spotlights. Shows multiple colored shadows and various surfaces including metallic lights, brick wall, carpet, and striped wallpaper. Teapot: The classic Newell teapot rendered with a rippling chrome surface.

Ah, but for those of us who agree that HAM doesn't do justice to these pictures and don't have a 24 bit display card for our Amiga, is there any way to convert these to a 24 bit format such as TGA so we can view these on other computers (I have access to this Mac II with an 8.24 card). <stuff deleted> >Images are copyright 1990 Mark Thompson. >%~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~% >% ` ' Mark Thompson % >% --==* RADIANT *==-- mark@westford.ccur.com % >% ' Image ` ...!{decvax,uunet}!masscomp!mark % >% Productions (508)392-2480 (603)424-1829 % >% % > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Metahawk metahawk@rpi.edu

Art Department Pro from ASDG or Imagelink from Active Circuits will do IFF24 conversion to many other formats including TGA. In thge PD/Shareware realm, RGBExchange will accept IFF24 and convert to TGA and a few others. Also, I modified the ilbmtoppm module for the pbmplus tools to handle IFF24. This would allow conversion to and from many formats plus various image operations but requires that you have the rest of the pbmplus (pub domain) source and a compiler. %~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~% % ` ' Mark Thompson % % --==* RADIANT *==-- mark@westford.ccur.com % % ' Image ` ...!{decvax,uunet}!masscomp!mark % % Productions (508)392-2480 (603)424-1829 % % % ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
