Hi Stephen, The Silverlight PPT viewer sounds like a cool app. Is it for a customer or a personal project? I'd love to see how you did it.

Jose showed a brief "what if" of the ANZ web site with a Deep Zoom version of some documents. My question about that is, did he build the document controls around the outside of the viewer or is that part of something the Deep Zoom tool creates for you? It's on my list of things to look at. I'm currently working on a Silverlight 2 app that displays content sourced from PowerPoint slides. I've got a converter that pulls the XAML out of an XPS document (printed from PowerPoint). I'm wondering if it might be a better alternative to export the PowerPoint stuff into images and use Deep Zoom? I guess the danger here is to try to use this exciting new stuff for everything. Not that banging square pegs into round holes isn't fun, don't get me wrong... ;) On Sat, May 31, 2008 at 8:40 AM, John OBrien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: Indeed we are Chuck, I didn't know this list existed, hello everyone. We are doing a few things, one is with the cultural sector looking at something similar to the hard rock memorabilia site but with more items, one project is looking at 18,000 high resolution art works. We have all the pieces although the whole automated command line processing is very undocumented and we face issues about the top limit of items we can display at one time. We have no way to uniquely identify an item within the collection apart from the zindex which is a bit hacky. And of course the bandwidth could kill us ;) Personally I've been playing with deep zoom for 50+ megapixel panorama photos, little article for anyone that is interested: http://www.liveside.net/blogs/developer/archive/2008/05/11/create-a-deep-zoo m-panorama-with-windows-live.aspx<http://www.liveside.net/blogs/developer/archive/2008/05/11/create-a-deep-zoom-panorama-with-windows-live.aspx> And you can check out a few shots from Bronwen's 350d (I hear you got the 400d Scott?): http://bronwenz.smugmug.com/gallery/4980796_NRXFM I'm also looking at a community project around Virtual Earth and Silverlight2 where ideally we would use the multiscaleimage control (deep zoom) but change the tile source - not even sure if this is possible. I actually had a good chat with Jose at remix in Melbourne, he has some great ideas. Keen to know what others are up to. Deep Zoom is awesome.
