Program evolved as integral part of SPIN project. It is used to convert input image (bmp format) to it's equivalent in radial form (either text or plain binary). Binary files are quite specific, and reusing theese may not be straightforward, but you can easily use text files in your persistence of vision projects.

Right at the beginnign, I'd like to confess, that source code supplied in this article is awful. There are two reasons:

• this project is my first encounter with .NET and C# - I've used it to get in touch with platform, which means I deliberately wrote some parts of code dirty and not optimal
• I am lazy

You'll need C# to compile source code and run SpinEdit.

Below you can see sample of the SpinEdit generated text file. You can use it to initialize array, that Is going to be displayed at your POV display. Use it freely as POV images editor.
