Nice job. I especially like the blur and reduced contrast as it gets further away. |

Its great. I like the colors. My Pentium4 1.6Ghz spiked to 24% then dropped down to 2% It takes a bite but doesnt sit down to gorge itself. |

Yah, basically all I have is 4 transparent <img>'s next to each other, something like 763px wide. As soon as it gets to less than -763px, it adds 763px to the left coordinate. I could probably eliminate one of them and just use 3, but for those double monitor folks, I figure, what the hell? ;-) I find that if only a little bit of it is showing onscreen, it speeds up quite a bit and CPU usage drops, so all the burden must be screen re-draw I figure. My next step will add to the burden, as I want to start tracking mouse movements and affecting the behaviour based on that. According to old "Warner Bros." logic, the foreground should be the one moving fastest, but I mixed up my numbers at first and this counter-intuitive version was what I got, and it looked cooler to me! I figure I could use the up and down mouse movement to affect that bit, and the right and left for... the right and left. If I do my work properly, I should waste many productive hours for many people, whoot! |

But that is assuming that the laws of physics in this world apply to the ones in the Land of Ozone. You never know. |

Since the foreground moves opposite the background (at the time of this posting), it looks like you're rotating around a point somewhere in the distance, sorta. |

Yep, I mentioned that bit about the counter-intuitive motion, backwards from how things are *supposed* to be, but really, it looks cooler this way. It hardly matter, because I'm just working on adjusting those values now, based on the Y position of the mouse, so it'll get even stranger I hope! (up will be the way physics says it should be, down'll be the way it is now.) |

I dropped the refresh rate just a bit, bringing it down to 40% on my Celeron 850, minor tweaks make a big difference! I tried using varying speeds based on the mouse position, but it looks funny when you make it go slow. Now it just jerks back and forth depending on where you place things, I like it better this way. I'll have to start adding the actual useful stuff for a 404 page now, tracking where you came from when you get there, and writing it into a logfile. (Maybe add some useful links for people to go to from here, too?) All this for the 100 people a day who end up at broken or outdated links! I'm a geek. |

How about a random signpost that pops up in the forground every once in awhile with messages like "Asylum 100 miles" or "Hand-on Tutorials 20 miles" that you could click on as links? |

Doc - I had scanned your posts to see if you mentioned anything about the movement - seem to have missed where you actually did the 1st time through |
