2009/7/15 HARRIS TONY <[log in to unmask]>: > Someone commented on Bridget's blog that zoomify images have been pieced together to produce these hi-res images. Can this be true?? Yes. > If so it can't have all happened in March 2009 and if it did who had the time to stitch together 3300 images? > > I'd be very interested to know if zoomify is now to be seem as a risk as we plan to implement zoomify on our website and would clearly be in trouble with artists whose work is still in copyright. It is trivial to write a script that can download and stitch together a hi-res image from the Zoomify tiles. It is a completely open and well-known format, and is in no way a 'protection' from downloading.
