Ok guys. I've got a first version up at http://milliams.com/verticalitymetre/. At the moment it randomly selects an image from the http://78.46.66.234/jpeg1600 directory, creates a local cached thumbnail and prints it on a page (with the thumbnail linking back to the original). I've chosen a selection of 5 points on the 'verticality' scale with text descriptions. At the moment, it saves your responses into a text file for each image. The images chosen are still random so you may be tagging images that other people have already done. This way I can just take a consensus at the end. It will be quite slow the first time a person views any particular as I have to fetch the image from the server but this will only be done once for each image. John, if you'd rather I'd do this a different way just tell me. Especially if it's hitting your server too hard (though the sum total of download bandwidth from you should be less than 900 MB -- ~878 images at ~1MB each). If at any point someone wants the statistics, just ask me. There's a small chance it will just suddenly go offline due to bandwidth restrictions at my end but really it shouldn't. If anyone has any questions or suggestions I'm all ears. Get tagging.
