WinImages is an aspect-correct program. It reads the DPI (dots-per-inch) settings from an image file and uses them to set the ratio of width to height for display. Some programs do not set these values in the image file correctly, and as a result, the image will appear distorted. The solution is to select "Change Image Info" from the menus and edit the DPI setting. If you want the change to be permanent, you'll need to re-save the image.

If your image is not the maximum size for the gallery page your thumbnail may be distorted. This exaggeration is most noticeable in vertical images. If you want to avoid the distortion please make a box in Photoshop that is 447 pixels wide and 350 pixels high that is white. Then save this newly generated file as the file for the registry. This will help ease any distortion that may occur.

If your image is fuzzy or distorted, the most likely reason is that you've uploaded an image that is smaller than 250 pixels wide. The software resizes smaller images to fill a window 250 pixels wide which can stretch out the pixels in your image and reduce its quality.

One set of satellite images is ingested in reverse. Remapping the image to the normal view detracts from the quality of the image. Why do the geographical lines jump around from image to image? Why is the iceberg south of -78 in the 16:38UTC image, at -78 in the 9:19UTC image, and south -78 again in the 09:49 image? Why does the navigation (map outline) look rock steady, while the surface features don't? I'm not a POES user.

Answer: The camera is programmed to automatically snap a picture at regular intervals and then transfer the image.jpg file to our secure server using ftp (file transfer protocol). If the page refresh of the camera window requests the server to download the image file to the camera window at the instant it is being written to the server's hard drive, the download may catch only part or none of the picture.

Answer: The camera is either down for maintenance, the router is having communication problems with the network, the network provider is currently down, the server may be down, or too many users are viewing the camera at one time.
