I already saw this isn't perfect. First of all since the sectors are
just drawn on top of the map they of course don't show the actual view
area including occlusions. In addition the area is wrong as well since
i would have to use a different map projection (in the current one the
view cone would need to be curved). This is especially a problem with
the higher altitude views.

You sure this worked? I have no comment from you in the database yet.
But testing myself it worked. I changed the confirmation page now - You
should get a page saying "Your message has been added and is waiting for
approval." and a preview of your comment after submission.

Well - until now the traffic has been moderate and the size is just
about 50MB currently.

"Sehr schoen" Well done.
Works perfectly on Konqueror/Firefox/Linux/Amd64
Did you increase the RAM of your machine to get decent handling times ?

Check if you like it better now - i added a gallery menu where you can
access the different region and style galleries. Note there are various
possible options for the gallery, try:
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery-menu.php?category=region
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery-menu.php?category=style
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery.php?area=samerica
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery.php?style=high
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery.php?site=fuji&category=region

The browsing is a lot better now but the there is something strange with the
links. For example on page
http://earth.imagico.de/gallery.php?site=greece&category=region
third image is named "Greece 2" but it has greece3 in url. I understand that
id is unrelated to label, so ok. But I would expect the link below image to
link to the same place as image. And if there is more in the region than add
another link like:
[ IMAGE ] - view.php?site=greece3
<Greece 2> - view.php?site=greece3
<related places> - gallery.php?site=greece3&category=region
But it could be just nitpicking to this great site.

It is as the text above says:
Click on the images to show these views, click on the links below to
show this same gallery for them.
I see this might not be straight away to understand but i wanted to keep
the amount of text below the images short.

It's there alright. Just takes time, probably. I did see the message saying
it was awaiting approval, before I left the page, too, so that worked okay.
Good to see it doesn't seem overly commented, I tried to keep it short and
edited out a sentence when I realized I was beginning to tell a longer story
than needed to be. Didn't want to fill up your page there too soon. :)

Well - i actually had to reconstruct it - the special characters were
not correctly replaced so the database command got messed up.

Don't worry about that - the number of comments is restricted to 5 - the
rest gets displayed on a separate page.

Not recently but indeed memory requirements are relatively high -
usually about 1.5 to 2 GB. This is however much less than you would
need for a mesh based render.

The random works very well for me. Maybe you reload the page from your cache.
