lol ya, Cheech means rotating the pic in 3D, requiring x,y, & z coords... not simply rotating it in photoshop, paint, etc
and cheech, i wouldn't announce your "resourcefullness" quite like that hahaha

I cant rotate on all three axis. I have paint which allows to expand or rotate. Nothing elaborate. I wish I could have software that could allow to show length with and dept from many angles. :roll:

I save pictures I like to a file where I can view them whenever I want. There I can rotate them and expand them for detail. It's surprising how many galaxies are it this photo. Way too numerous to count. :)

do you mean there's enough info in the picture so that it could be rotated say 90 deg along the x,y, or z axis? what software do you have that enables you to do that?

i'm image processing challanged ;-(
but a pirate to the hilt who can get most any software.

todays picture is another that i would love to see in 3d. or to be more specific i'd like to be able to rotate the image to see what it would look like if viewed from 90 degrees to the left or east or even 180 degrees.
i realize we don't have a hubble telescope in these positions to take a picture, but is there a way to extrapolate what this cluster would look like from these view points?
