This was taken from the Gimp Developers mailing list. * width = 768; height = 512 . The PhotoCD format contains several layers of resolution. The smaller ones (listed above) have no real data compression, just a bit of subsampling on the chroma channel, so that readout and display can be very fast even on computers without impressive CPUs. ... This will let you convert the image to ppm format, at which point you can easily mess with it in the gimp. ... Created: August 25, 1996 . ...

. The Swift mosaic of the Small Magellanic Cloud contains about 250,000 ultraviolet sources. The 57-megapixel image was assembled from 656 separate snapshots. The image has a total exposure time of 1.8 days, an angular resolution of 2.5 arcseconds at full size, and maps UV light at wavelengths between 1,600 and 3,300 angstroms. The SMC is about 7,000 light-years across. // NASA/Swift/S. Immler (Goddard) and M. Siegel (Penn State)
