KevinH replied on December 17, 2008 17:11 to the question "100 photo limit in Photozoom albums limits Sea Dragon" in Microsoft Live Labs:

They might be using photosynth.com.

You can upload well over 100 photos to Photosynth (I've seen 1200 in one synth) and view them using Seadragon Mobile in a 2d grid view. They don't even have to be synthy.

Not sure why Photozoom isn't working. We'll look into solutions.

KevinH replied on December 15, 2008 23:51 to the idea "Seadragon Ajax image rotation?" in Microsoft Live Labs:

If I understand right, you want to be able to arbitrarily rotate and image within the Seadragon Ajax control?

Unfortunately we don't have this implemented at the moment. It would be something really fun and cool to have, but without universal <canvas> support in all browsers, it would be non-trivial.

You may be able to add this custom control using the canvas tag, but it wouldn't have universal support in modern browsers.

Naturally Aseem and Boyd might have other ideas for you.</canvas>

We currently don't do much of anything with vectors, but it is certainly something we're thinking about. You're obviously aware that much can be done with them; and for the record, your site is pretty fantastic at showing how the zooming metaphor can be applied.

If you are using Deep Zoom Composer, make sure you have created a JPG DZI and not a WDP DZI. That might be the problem, let me know if that doesn't work!

Tiago Andrade e Silva's reply to "How do we find the URL from PhotoZoom to include in the Silverlight Ajax "Embed The Viewer" page ?" was just promoted to the most useful! KevinH and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

I found it!
It only works for individual pictures and not the album. On the PhotoZomm you need to select "View Individual Photos" (link on the right)

we you are looking at a specific picture, you get it's url at the bottom. It actually points to a xml like:
http://photozoom.mslivelabs.com/DZ/0/...
(Deep Zoom Image file)

The user does have access to these files. Admittedly they are kind of a hack, but some cool things are being done with them. An excellent demonstration of this exists here, from a guy named binary millenium

Check this synth out: It's not something you can do with your camera

Remember to check out the point cloud

KevinH replied on October 23, 2008 20:42 to the question "Can I upload only the synth files?" in Microsoft Live Labs:

The way things are currenly setup, I am afrad you can't. Something to think about for the future though!

KevinH replied on October 22, 2008 20:17 to the question "How should we use DOF?" in Microsoft Live Labs:

It should be fine as long as the foreground object is synthy. I've seen some interesting depth of field things. Play around with it and post your results! I'd love to see them.
