Did you use the raw images for your project?

Maybe they saw something and is now trying to cover it up.

Is it supposed to be a full photo? Because, the pic I am seeing, that you posted, has white blocks, blocking some areas of the photo. Did you post this yesterday too?? I remember seeing it, same problem, and I assumed there was some sort of glitch???

That's BS. And that is freakin weird.

It doesn't make sense to me. Why is it such a big deal that your posts are getting removed?
You're not asking for anything.

You just stitched the images together better than they did.

Yeah, I don't get it. Give'em hell.

First off, I'm going to say this. I didn't want to say it because I thought I was doing a good thing and I was on NASA's side. But screw that.

Ok, at the NASA/JPL site where you can download the raw images, I went to SOL 3 about 4 days ago (the 10th?) When I got to the site, I saw some "subframes" popping up - higher resolution images. So I started downloading them.

Now, if you look at mine and NASA's, there is missing data. Mine are in the form of white blocks/areas. Theirs is black.

Anyways - THAT DATA came up as subframes, but I was downloading the other ones (right click, save as, etc). It takes time to download each image.

When I got back to the top, the subframes were being taken down one by one (can't be substantiated of course because it's only my word - but I know what the hell I saw). Then they were low resolution thumbnails from that moment even until now.

This is a joke, right? What is going on?!

I saw your first thread on this.
If it's any consolation, I think you did a great job there.
People like you are who made the web great.
High quality user generated content, time taken, expertise shown.
You're probably seen as a threat to someone's over inflated ego.
Take it as a compliment.
I am going to share your link with my so called friends.
Take it as a compliment.

me to i am getting white patches ? strange looks like iceland

And why would Yahoo! not want that? That could of been a good story or something and it could have gotten the image shared. But no.

Because it is not the OP's original picture(s). Therefore that is copyright..

No - it's not and I don't plan to. I don't want money. Just to share.

Thank you. I was thinking that I pissed some people off because of the job, but when you (meaning I) say that, it makes you look arrogant and that's not what I want. My intentions are friggin pure and this is so frustrating! But thanks! And like I said - I have an almost 500 MB version of it with hardly any artifacts - if we can get it around...

I just posted your link up, with an explanation of the situation.

Maybe it will make it's way around.

Nope. NASA Images aren't copyrighted.

It's the same as their pano from SOL 3.

But I just posted this which answers your question about the blocks:

And why is this thread blowing up?! I didn't expect that! Maybe there is something going on here...
