I don't think anybody has mentioned this recently.  The size of the stereo
pair you see on your screen is dependent on the screen size and resolution.
If you are running 640x480, there will be a big difference in the size of
your stereo pairs depending whether you have a 12 inch monitor or a 21
inch!

If the photo maker has a big, high-resolution monitor, then he makes bigger
photos to compensate.  When viewed on a smaller monitor, these photos look
gigantic.  My tests with some of Boris's photos have an interocular
distance of almost 6 inches.  Hard for me to freeview!  :^)

There is no universal way to show such pictures so they are freeviewable on
all monitors.  In the magazine, the size and spacing are fixed.
