- Strong support exceptionnal --Luc Viatour 06:35, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Support Technically perfect, despite the fact that it has just killed my browser... ;D --Erina 07:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Neutral I am very inclined to support this picture (I am an astronomer myself), but unfortunately I am unable to watch it in full resolution. Roger McLassus 08:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- yes, the picture is very large 18000 x 18000px 2,43GB decompressed! Very very long to open, but very very beautiful!--Luc Viatour 05:47, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- 18000x18000x24bit=972Mb. How did you get 2.43Gb? --Leclerc 16:08, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I have write too quickly! Converted into Tif it is exactly 949Mo already enormous! --Luc Viatour 05:34, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

- Support Image doesn't display in Firefox, but works fine in Opera. Looks great at full resolution. --startaq 13:26, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment You will do better to use a proper image viewer like Photoshop or GIMP(free), browsers are not designed for such enormous images. HighInBC 02:33, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Hmmm ... Gimp does not work either, it loads entire image in memory and then it hangs ... is there any software to chop such image in tiles and view the tiles separately? --Leclerc 16:18, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment I know... But the page should have a big, red warning. There are more browser-killing pics (all from NASA), maybe a template? --Erina 08:06, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment I agree, I put a warning there, but perhaps it needs to be bolder, please do something like that as I have never used color markup on a wiki before. HighInBC 15:29, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Neutral - ditto to Roger McLassus. It is possible to have too much of a good thing. - MPF 18:13, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Can the warning be put above the pic, rather than below it? - currently it isn't visible until one scrolls down, and one might already have clicked on the pic by then. - MPF 18:13, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Support "My God, it's full of stars!" --Adamantios 19:21, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Strong support Very nice deep space image and the resolution is great. Well, maybe too great, 1 gigabyte of ram is barely enough to load it :) --Leclerc 22:42, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Support -LadyofHats 22:54, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Support Jkelly 18:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Agree --Prevert(talk) 21:21, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- Support I lack of words good enough to describe it. Jon Harald Søby 21:02, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
- Comment It does seem like a very nice picture, but what's the point of featuring it if only those with rather hefty comp requirements or relatively high computer savviness can watch it? Could we provide a scaled down version or something? / Peter Isotalo 20:50, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
