Magic Crystal

Note: This applet is obsolete, Please use MagicCrystal II Applet instead

Move your mouse across this image to see the applet in action.

A few words about this applet:

The applet can be used with any gif87 non-interlaced image. This image can be zoomed out to 1:2 by the applet for better quality of lense effect. The zoomed image will be centered in the applet area. For better appearance, leave some empty area around the zoomed image. Best results can be obtained when the area width is equal to the radius of the lens. For example, if the original image has the size 400x300 and the SPOTR parameter value is 20, then for best results choose applet sizes: 

WIDTH=imagewidth/2+SPOTR*2=400/2+20*2=240
HEIGHT=imageheight/2+SPOTR*2=300+20*2=190
(It's the matter of taste of course.)

Applet parameters:

Parameter Name

Value
