- I have redone all the montages of the pictures on ursa-major. The new files
- are available from ftp.ucs.ed.ac.uk in /pub/images/motss.new. The old gifs
- have been removed.
-
- The directory contents a 18 sets of three files. The three files are:
-
- a table of contents
- a montage gif file
- a compressed encapsulated PostScript file containing a greyscale image of
- the gif file
-
- The files are called:
-
- 1.contents
- 1.gif
- 1.ps.Z
- 2.contents
- 2.gif
- 2.ps.Z
- ...etc..etc...
-
- The images are not necessarily in alphabetic order so you really need to fetch
- the contents files to find out which gifs you want. However, they are much
- better laid out with 25 pictures to each page. This seemed to give a reasonable
- balance between legibility and compression.
-
- Enjoy.
