test test test - does this work?

I played around using a freeware soft I found today and thought this might be ok for the salon competition but looks too late.
As I wanted to make it sure whether this works, let me post it here.

yep, works well! very amusing.

This method is actually used to produce 'fake' 3D images as well, a picture of an object or person is taken from two slightly different angle and then switched in this way.

Where did you obtaqin the freesoft from Yoshi, I have been after one for a while, but all the freeones I have found have text embedded.

Yes, it is exactly as you say. I found it here. http://coboo.homeip.net/~coboo/

Just click "download here" for December 18, 2007.
After several trial and errors, he seemed to have succeeded to correct the bug today.

I think if you need a help in reading the Japanese text, I think I can help you - but I now know you are much more orientalized these days so it might be not neces ....

Some remarks from that site.
After downloading, just click the file name "pura2maker.exe" - it will extract three files - an application file itself, a tutorial pdf and a shockwave file.

The pdf says that the file installation does not alter any registry and if you want remove the files just do so by deleting the folder/files.

When you click the program file, you will find a screen like this.

You copy and paste two slightly different pictures to (1) and (2).

at (3) FILE READING SIZE, you choose one of the following two.

(4) specify maginication/resizing ratio
or
(5) aspect ratio

(6) preview and "start" button

When you click this, then the preview shows up at (7).

Stop the motion at "stop" botton, which is same as the "start" botton. It automatically changes from "start" to "stop".

For ( '8' ) setting alterations (the button in the rectangle says "reset")
(9) no change in size
(10) no rotation

I haven't used ('8' ) to (10) so not familiar yet with those.

(11) trimming (or crop)

After stopping the preview motion, you adjust the photo frame using the scales here. The four scales are for;

---upper
left right
---bottom

(12) interval time in 10milli seconds - mine was set to 50 or so to slow the movement. The software is originally intended for 3D and not necessarily the movement.

(13) save
(14) quit

***************
After pasting two photos to 1 and 2, there are some needs to specify the movement axis for further sophistication of the movement.

p.s. The author says it needs further sophistication.
Before you drug two photos to 1 & 2, you have to specify the file size. Or you have to restart again - something like that.
