Each of the links below are to server pushed jpeg images. They are quite big - typically several thousand frames each compressed from 24 bit images at 3a resolution of 20x240 pixels. Unless you have a fast internet connection these will prolly be pretty slow...

The footage is broken up into seven sections, in chronological sequence. I did this when I decided that a particular directory was too full of images. There is no deeper meaning to this separation.
