At first glance I was pretty impressed, as when you zoom in on the image, you can see every face and every person in pretty good detail, but then I read the header describing how it was compiled and then I noticed, especially in the bottom right by the gates, that there are people missing torsos, legs, heads, bodies blending into one another..... in another area of the image, I could see a girl and guy kissing, and the guy had someone else's head popping out of his.

......was captured at 5:46 pm on June 15, 2011. It is made up of 216 photos (12 across by 18 down) stitched together, taken over a 15-minute span, and is not supposed to represent a single moment in time.......

^ Which explains the issues I noted and why some of them look like they're cropped.

Would have been nice if they spent a little more time cleaning up some of these issues though.....

Though another point is that you can see every single person who was there in pretty good detail..... no boobies though.

Zipped photos are pretty straight forward today, they're still large files though. Are you suggesting that the image was photoshopped ... with missing legs and arms here and there ... or ...?

Not sure if 'stitching together' constitutes shopped or not. Unfortunately, over a fifteen minute span, people move, so, one square doesn't meet the other quite right. There are people missing half their heads, even one poor gent who ends at the shoulders. lol.

Much like google street view, things are distorted and cut because it's a bunch of pictures stitched together, there's no other way to do it.
