Greg,
I called Craig Allen about the status of the time lapse stuff last week,
but I never heard from him. So, Dewey or I will reach him in the coming
week to find out what has happened to the time lapse stuff. We could
build a moving GIF and make that viewable on the website. But I think a MPEG
movie might be even better. Several megabytes of MPEG would show a lot
and we would make the file FTPable.
By the way, two cameras were used there. The second took time
lapse shots from an overhead view. Hopefully we can do something with
both. To my knowledge no one has ever viewed A. titanum from above as it
opened.
