Updating the image[edit]

Someone will need to continually update this image to move the "now" arrow as time goes on. Grand Dizzy (talk) 19:48, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea, we should commission people on 10,000 year shifts... FrunkSpace (talk) 09:48, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Can someone covert this to a dynamic graphic format, then apply some automation with a touch of java. WurmWoodeT 04:24, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think the distance between the ticks is about 30 px (but didn't measure it), so we need to move it by one pixel in about 30 million years. I hope the ratio of computers with Flash installed should increase enough by that time as to make Flash animations acceptable at Wikipedia, in which case the problem could be solved more elegantly. We'll see. --Gutza T T+ 20:32, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry. It's an animated PNG. The arrow will move as necessary. Moore's law will take care of getting the delay correct in the future. 96.237.20.177
Something tells me that the people who will be making the pixel shift 30 million years from now will find our civilization frighteningly primitive. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.178.135.163 (talk) 07:38, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And if they will ever read this, they will laugh. 77.248.72.121 (talk) 04:26, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For the record guys, I'm in the process of creating an SVG of this. IT'S GONNA BE AWESOME. (A pretty small external j-script could move the arrow if required, HTML 5 is totally rad like that.) Oliverbeatson.talk.cont 22:34, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
