Wow, amazing stuff. Sometimes it's easy to forget just how good Spectrum (and later
Photochrome) really were.

[Anima]

Actually it "only" uses the original 512 colour palette of the Atari ST so it's like a showcase for the original Spectrum 512 program. The images have been created using Flux AI with the purpose to include many details to match a sweet spot to avoid dithering.

Cool...!

I like it

Is there an executable version to enjoy on our ST's?

There's a download link on the Youtube site:

It's in .ST format. I used JayMSA to unarchive it.

HTH's.

Thank you!

I've added a MSA link as well: https://www.anides.de/flux_slide.msa

Looks nice! Also with EmuTOS, as long as one remembers to use non-US (50Hz) TOS version...

Nice pictures! Could you share some of them in the original 24bits colors? I'm curious to see how it would look with Amiga HAM mode

Sure.

Btw.: you can use these images (by drag and drop) with ComfyUI to recreate them and more based on the prompt.

Hmm, oddly enough, I couldn't get the slideshow program to work here on my STacy.

The screens were horribly scrambled.

It did work though, with another version of the slideshow program.

The screens were horribly scrambled.

It seems that the included slide show program doesn't switch the refresh rate to 60 Hz. Mind to give a link to the other (working) version?

[DarkLord]

I'm not sure where I got it from - it's been on my drive(s) for so long.

But I'll zip it up later and just add it here.

The pictures are great, btw!

Here is that file. It's size is slightly bigger than the one that won't work, and the
interface is different. You can see the menu below:

Beautiful images, with judicious use of color palettes At first I thought the program had a trick to keep the screen borders intact. I tested with the MI-3 slideshow to check

No problem. You call, we haul, that's all.

nice pictures! here are sliced-HAM version. Looks slightly better than original SPC format but to be fair mostly because Amiga is using 4096 colors here instead of 512. I'm curious to see same pictures with modern Atari STE multi-color format
