Online ST Picture Viewer - new tool

[Cyprian]

Sometimes ago I prepared small Atari picture viewer for my own purposes. I think it is time to show it.

Supported graphics formats:
SPECTRUM512:
SPC, SPS, SPU
DEGAS:
PI1, PI2, PI3
DESKPIC:
GBF
MODERN:
BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG

I plan to add following features:
- more Atari graphics formats (e.g. PC*, IMG, PCS, PBX, HRM, NEO);
- color palette viewer;
- file format info;
- graphic conversion (e.g. JPG to SPC) and export to file;

Check it: http://260ste.appspot.com/

Suggestions and comments are welcome.

Due to used HTML5 File and DnD API, Viewer works only under modern browser (like Firefox 4, Chrome 11).

That's excellent, great viewer

[rudis]

great
what about optional zoom?

[wongck]

I tried to drag a image but no response.
Then I notice that PC1 is not supported yet.

I drop a JPG and instead my browser displayed it. ...

Finally got it working, when drop the JPG onto the display box.

Love it! The option to drag a whole folder onto it would be nice, and then display in sequence ala slideshow.

great

do you mean a magnifier or just zoom whole image e.g. x2?
cool idea, I'll add zoom in near future. thanks

Then I notice that PC1 is not supported yet.

corrected, PC1/PC2/PC3 should works now

nice idea too,
hmm, I'm not sure if HTML5 File or DnB API supports dropped Folders. I need double check it

Great stuff and the demonstration on the web works fine.
Except if you use picture format > 320*200, border of it will cut...

Idea : do you add some Amiga format like IFF, LBM, etc...

do you have an example file? I'd like to implement overscaned files.
BTW. stanard resolutions works fine e.g. 640x400 for GFB.
PI1/2/3 and PC/1/2/3 without top/bottom border works (check attached zipped KENSHIN.PI1)

A capture who demonstrate that a png file in 384*270 not appear totaly inside the square
I join an overscan file, hope that you arrive to display it

Ask me if you want some samples

[Cyprian]

Hi Zorro,

A capture who demonstrate that a png file in 384*270 not appear totaly inside the square

corrected, png, gif, jpg and bmp should not be cropped to 320x200 any more.

I join an overscan file, hope that you arrive to display it

unforunately that PIXEL.PI1 doesn't work neither under Degas Elite nor Atari Picture Viewer (Tom Kirk). It seems that it is not valid PI1 format. How do you create and open that file?

Ask me if you want some samples

yes please

thanks

I use Google Chrome 12.xx and ik works lik a dream, great man !
PC1, Pi1 tested , okay !!

Pi9 would also be nice: 320*240*256 color (Delmpaint)

[Xerus]

Nice idea, works nice with Chrome [smilie=greencolorz4_pdt_01.gif]

do you have any Pi9 files?

Hi mister Cyprian

I join some samples from Atari/Amiga picture files.

Enjoy

CAPITOL.SPC is not a valid Spectrum file.
DIGITAL.PI2 is not a valid Degas file uncompressed file.

It is nice to have an Example of a FuckPaint file finally. I will add it to my picture conversion program.

Ah, it is a very useful picture (NOT!).

I think it should look like this:

COLOURF.png

Can someone confirm this?

Hans Wessels

[Nyh]

Fuckpaint comes with an picture with a PI4 extension that has exact the same format as a PI9 picture. Are both extensions in use?

Is the PI9 extension only for 320x240 with 256 colors or does it also support 320x200 with 256 colors?

Hans Wessels

[hylst]

Good work & idea ! I didn't know any St picture viewer online yet.
What about a full screen/window mode & a save option in png for example (or even bmp) ?

[Nyh]

Can someone confirm this?

So a may assume the is no interest at all in the ability to display Falcon file formats?
As no a single Falcon user did take time to help us out with this picture.

Hans Wessels

[Shredder11]

I'm a fairly new Falcon owner as I got both of mine early last year, so not tried any graphical stuff yet but yes I would like your viewer to handle them. I've also got a exposé video capture device that I plan on using soon.

PI1/2/3 and PC/1/2/3 without top/bottom border works (check attached zipped KENSHIN.PI1)

That PI1 is actually slightly corrupt. Nothing wrong with your viewer, but that KENSHIN.PI1 has a 5 pixel wide column on the left of the picture that really should be on the right. See these images:

Kenshin.png

Kenshin-fixed.png

I guess I should add support for images like this in my Atari ST Plus Picture Viewer as well.

Here is a fixed version of that PI1.

hi
there is a bug when loading Degas compress files in medium resolutions.
it could also be nice if you double y axis i medium so the picture look right.

Hi
is there a reason to why the picture is 44.834 bytes instead of 32.034 bytes?
is there something that i overlooked

because those PI1 have bigger resolution than 320x200. Attached you can find some other overscaned PI1. You can check them on my website: http://260ste.appspot.com/

wow, where did you find fixed version of that file?

Edit 20-09.2012 12.50
change some of the text, i discovered that google translate did make it sound rude, I apologize for that : )


thanks Cyprian i didn't notice that

do you have any information about size if Degas, i presume that it is only the y size there can be bigger.


here is the medium res error i talk about.

the second picture is what it should look like, the Y axis has been doubled.
and the st-midi.rar file is the source file
