I've been doing a lot of 20,000 by 20,000 image rendering. The following link was actually over 100 temp files during rendering.
It's 54MB, ye be advised.

I did one gigapixel image, but it was a lame graphic.

Since that image didn't yield any results (there was "nothing" in the document, despite the extreme load time), could you post the code with which you obtained your image? I'd be interested in that.

You might want to try to save the document with your browser (e.g. in IE right click and go to "save target as").
Also, most graphics viewers can't handle it in actual pixel mode. You might need to open it in photoshop or ACDSee or some other pro graphics viewer.
I'll post the code when I get home from work today. It was basically just like my weighting_demo.cfdg in the gallery, but with a few changes.

I'm not sure because I got up and left. I think maybe an hour or so.

I made a similar image with this code a while back:
Code: Select all
startshape STARTREE
rule STARTREE{
TRY{}
TRY{r 180}
TRY{r 108}
TRY{r -108}
TRY{r 36}
TRY{r -36}
TRY{r 72}
TRY{r -72}
TRY{r 144}
TRY{r -144}
CIRCLE{s 2}}
rule TRY{
SQUARE{}
LINE1{y 1 s .98 r 4.5 b .02}}
rule LINE1 .85{
SQUARE{}
LINE1{y 1 s .98 r 4.5 b .02}}
/*rule LINE1 .25 {LINE1 {}}*/
rule LINE1 .25 {LINE2 {}}
rule LINE2 .5{
SQUARE{}
LINE2{y 1 s .98 r -4.5 b .02}}
rule LINE1 .045{
SQUARE{}
LINE2{ y 1 s .98 r 4.5 b -.02}
LINE1{ y 1 s .6 r -4.5 b -.02}
LINE2{ y 1 s .5 r -4.5 b -.02}}
rule LINE2 .085 {
SQUARE{}
LINE1{y 1 s .98 r 4.5 b -.02}
LINE2{y 1 s .6 r -4.5 b -.02}
LINE1{ y 1 s .5 r -4.5 b -.02}}
Not quite as much depth as your image, but similar nonetheless. Not nearly as large, either, but I imagine it would get up there if I rendered it on a larger scale.[/code]
