Interesting looking! What's a polar coordinate transformation?
dgrundy
If you give each pixel in a rectangular image a pair of coordinates measuring the distance of the pixel in a left/right and up/down direction from an 'origin' (say, the centre of the picture) then a polar-coordinate transformation will alter those coordinates in such a way that the resulting pixels lie in a circular region, i.e a disc. The graphics editor I use has such a transform function built in. For more info on polar coordinates and the math behind transformations see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinates

Very interesting, and innovative. I like it. Too bad you don't work for Vendor Nation, maybe we would have VP5 by now.
