Testing jps files on the web

Important for viewing stereo pictures

Remember at this moment I concentrate on full color, maximum resolution and parallel viewing (the only method I practice at this moment), in the future this may change (who knows I will buy a page flip LCD shutter glass).
The following aspects are essential for me:
  1. Internet Explorer and Netscape/Mozilla must be supported
    To be able to provide as much users with proper jps views
  2. Resampling using linear of bicubic of the stereo pair when resizing.
    This is essential to get a relatively good quality picture
  3. ISPs must support the jps extension in their MIME types of the web-server.
    If this is not properly done, stereo files will not be as easy to view as simple jpg files.
  4. For parallel viewing an automatic sizing done based on eye distance and display pixel per inch.
    This function is handy for beginners, to make parallel viewing as easy as possible.
  5. jps-file extension must be properly added/handled by all stereo viewer, plugins and editors
    6. We don't have this file extension for nothing and being lacks about this does not help the stereo world.
