ZDNet 4 Star Review Now you can quickly and easily create interactive, Web-ready, modem friendly 3D scenes, based on your digital photos. You can choose from the six different scene types described below. These interactive scenes are based on VRML, the standard for 3D on the Web.

If your Web browser is VRML enabled, click the Examples button to check out live examples of each scene type. If your Web browser is not VRML enabled, you can learn how to download the latest VRML player from our Website.

3D ImageScene Scene Types (Templates)

Photo-Go-Round - a rotating "carousel" of images, a lot like a jewelry case or greeting card display. This type does not require 3D navigation: simply spin the rack, or watch it spin (a little sphere is the on/off switch).

Highway - Familiar and easy: just drive straight down the road and check out the billboards. Go as fast or slow as you like. When you get to the end, use the handy turn around to, well, turn around. If you're the gamer type, you can drive off the road if you insist. (Don't worry, the billboards won't hurt you).

Gallery - Enter a circular room and view the pictures on the wall. Don't worry about getting lost: the cordon keeps you in the middle (where you can't smudge the pictures!).

Photo Album - A 3D version of the real deal. Similar to the Photo-Go-Round, you don't have to fly around to enjoy this photo album. You can tilt it back and forth to get it just right, then flip through the pages of pics.

Browsing Room - This room is full of racks. The racks are full of pictures (sort of like magazines). You can browse through the collections by walking around, or use the preset viewpoints to go from rack to rack. If you've been to BlockBuster, this'll be real familiar.

Simple Landscape - For a truly immersive feeling, walk around among the images. You won't get too badly lost - the room is surrounded by little retaining walls. And the pictures will always rotate to face in your direction. (Try getting that to happen at BlockBuster!)

All of the scene types are designed to automatically link each thumbnail to a larger resolution version of the image. A description can be added if desired (it defaults to the name, pixel size, and file size of the target image). HTML wrappers can be added to each image (automatically), giving a "seamless" look to the page (and another place to display the description). If you like, you can edit the URL fields, to link the thumbnails to Web pages, instead.

Here's a screen shot of the default two frame layout, showing the Photo-Go-Round in action. The built-in batch reduction module was used to preprocess the target images so that they all were no more than 320 in the maximum pixel dimension, pretty darned small (around 15K each), and progressive. This means even the target images download fast and fit comfortably in the browser window.

Come on, have you tried it over a modem?!?	Yeah, but does everyone have VRML?	Sounds neat, but it's really hard to use, isn't it?
Yep. Here's why 3D ImageScene is modem friendly.	Many do. Most could. More will. VRML facts and opinions.	Hehehe. Not at all. In fact, it's a piece of cheese.
See what people are starting to say about 3D ImageScene.
