That's pretty cool, I bet some people are not willing to walk in right away thinking they may fall to their death.  :P

It's retarded because you don't like wallpaper?

Well, partially.  Pretty much all wallpaper is bad.  But that photo wallpaper is particularly ugly/tacky.

I'm with Shmokes. Particulary if said wallpaper is a giant baby looking to eat you.

If anyone is tripping acid, don't let them in the baby room.

Why would it be ugly by definiton? Sure that baby picture was awful, but that doesn't say the idea is ugly. I've seen big prints that looked really good. Not sure if custom printed wallpaper would look as good, but I don't see why not.

Even a modern TV would have only something like 30 DPI resolution to 50 DPI for a Full HD. That looks fine from normal viewing distance. With a 12MP camera and using the same DPI you could something like a 2x1.5m (7x5 ft) to 2.5 x 4m (8x12 ft) picture

Quite possibly.  Visual illusions can really mess with people's sense of balance and ability to keep food in their stomach.  If the image embedded in the floor was of a high quality, high resolution it probably would make some people incredibly ill.

You misunderstand me, Patrick.  I'm not concerned with the quality of the photo.  I think prints on a wall are tacky.  Turning a wall into a giant photograph is even worse.  That's why I don't like wallpaper.  I don't care if it's 50 dpi, 300 dpi or 1000 dpi.  And, aside from being ugly as sin, wallpaper has the added irritation of being extremely difficult to remove.  It's like when people put up that horrific popcorn texture on the ceiling.  It's extraordinarily ugly and extraordinarily difficult to fix.

yeah but you gotta admit shmokes; it'd be great to have a print of a row of arcade machines at the end of a row of arcade machines and see how many people walk into it.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

I could have just as much fun gluing a quarter to the ground, and I don't have to ruin a room in my house in the process.   ;)
