I would think it could be done, your extent would be given in pixels. Full 
extent is given as 0 0 width-1 height-1. Depends if the raster code respects 
the layer TRANSFORM parameter.

Eric,

Interesting idea.  I remember a thread a few years back about something similar 
being asked.

As far as the geo-referencing part, you can simply use the size of the image as 
your reference coordinate system for each image.  Mapserver is more generally 
suit towards combining different data into a single output, thus the need for a 
coordinate system to reference more than one layer.

So, the real question boils down to a technique for fooling MapServer into some 
sort of projection some how for each image.   Let me think on this a bit.  I 
wonder though about setting up something to register images to a location via a 
loading form which grabs the image size, etc.  Then they are put away with the 
sudo projection assigned to each image at the uploading point.

I would like to use MapServer as just an unreferenced image viewer for jpgs so 
I can zoom in and out on the image.  Everything I read says that images have to 
be georeferenced.  Any idea or even examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric Weisbender
