High resolution chip maps

As of 10/6/2014 there are 149.

Linked from pages when available and can be found at: http://siliconpr0n.org/map/ Tiles were originally output at .jpg quality 75 but since upgrading pr0n disk space in early 2013 tiles should now uploaded at .jpg quality 90.

Original images used to generate tiles can be found interspersed with the tiles. Sometimes these are not available for one reason or another but in any case can be reconstructed from the map tiles (most likely at some loss of quality) by running something like “montage -geometry +0+0 -tile 73×60 *.jpg out.png”. The raw tiles can be found in “tiles_out” sub-directory

Q: Why use Dokuwiki and not Mediawiki?

A: ACLs are required for certain projects that can't yet be made public. Dokuwiki supports this much better than Mediawiki which is either fully closed or fully open
