[Marble-devel] Some tutorials / articles about Marble

[Torsten Rahn]

Hi everyone,

I've blogged a bit about topics that cover how Marble works internally. It 
would be nice if people could spread the word about it:


Marble's Secrets Part I: Behind the Scenes of Marble...

http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3269

Part I is a Do-It-Yourself course about creating maps for Marble. We see how 
Marble manages to even display features such as aerial photos or 
OpenStreetMap.

Marble's Secrets Part II - Walking In The Shoes Of Slartibartfast ...

http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3272

Part II shows how Marble paints the different map layers. It gets also 
explained why Marble only needs very little disk space and memory for its 
default map - making it an ideal choice for solutions that involve little 
hardware resources (like the Asus EeePC and the OLPC). 

Marble's Secrets Part III: The Earth in a Download

http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3275

In Part III we look beyond Marble's offline mode: We'll get to know how Marble 
fetches its data from the internet.


I plan to continue this series in about a week by publishing another three 
chapters.

Have Fun,
Torsten
