not what you think it's for.

It's not going to be just pictures of letters of text in books but things that bring emotion when you see the picture. No I'm not in school, no homework nothing like that. I'm retired navy. Honorable medical discharge. Anyway I'm going to put the pictures in a time lapse and then I'm going to speed it up till each picture only flashes for about 16 milliseconds. I do tree removal time lapses for my dad's business. I set up my camera to take a picture every 5 seconds for 5 or so hours then we take the tree down and then I turn the pictures into a 1 minute timelapse.
When I do a tree timelapse I put the pictures into the timelapse program and it is a big video 3000 pictures about 20 GB but then I put it through iMovie and speed it up and it's a very small file size. Like 45MB
its an idea/experiment i had 3 days ago, and I'm try to put it together. I just need the script to do the copying and sequentially renaming.
