Image generator


Every time a subscriber uploads a JPEG or ZIP file to PBase, this sophisticated device generates the three standard images for display. It is a Delco Alternating Image Master II, the only instrument of its kind. By means of a highly secret process and the use of patented components, it creates a small, medium, and large image from the original file received by PBase. Magnetism, the strange force that is the cause of many photographic blunders, is harnessed by this thingy-bob for the benefit of mankind. Photographic anomalies are suppressed by a resistive fratostatic circuit (based on a design conceived by Arnie Hague) that is coupled to an ionic breeze reguritator.

As you look at this, try to imagine uploaded images coursing through the dark wiring, being morphed into files that are displayed on computer monitors around the world. (I know, the concept is so radical as to defy human comprehension!---That is typical for PBase technology.) Lest competitors learn too much about this device, I cannot reveal its actual size (size does matter), but I can say that it would not fit on the average size residential property.

I have a device in my workshop that looks a lot like this.
It is a brand new Dyson electric motor for an Animal cleaner.
Now I don't have that vacuum cleaner any more so it is only taking up space.
I will just put it in the rubbish next time I have a clear out.

I recall seeing a home-made banner hanging on a nearby wall; it said "Makeovers 'R Us."

I'm glad you informed us of this, Dave--I need a new image.

Larry, thank you for your vote of confidence. To respond to your inquiry...Modern technology cannot do everything we would like it to do. This image generator is good at what it does and nothing else---except maybe for generating questions by surfers. A device's performance derives from a narrowly-focused purpose, as here. Another company tried to combine image generation and color enhancement in one unit, but no one bought it because it did neither job adequately. That company went out of business.

Really nice photo of that thingy-bob. I am glad to know you have all the technical terms down so no one gets confused. I noticed some of the wiring is red. Does that help generate color? Maybe I should ask much because I know you are not at liberty to say.
