MASTERS first class Final Project

So where have I been? At school, Savannah School of Art and Design's MAster program is Interactive and Game Devlopment.
Being a teacher it is nice to get the student perspective once in a while. Anyway here is a prototype of my Final Project, an Interactive Guide to Leonardo Da Vinci. It is feature complete, now is process of bug testing, tweaking and refining. All comments and found bug are welcome, feel free to post them here.
NOTE there are seperate builds for each platform. Please post comments and bugs as quickly as you can. When you load the app, give it a minute, it has to load a lot of images which takes time.
Thanks

Getting it now Ant. I really am looking forward to seeing this. Might be a great example for my students of useful "serious" content development.

1) The painting view scroller thingy on the left is a nice idea. But you should auto-switch the main view picture (painting) when the painting hits the center of that scroller view.
2) The pictures are mostly ok, but a couple seem to have the wrong aspect ratio. I suggest keeping the aspect ration and scaling to fit it within a given bounds.
3) The timeline aspect is nice, but its hard to tell what the "paintings" and "drawings" buttons do. Its also hard to tell what the time slider is actually changing (other than the time obviously). Does the slider determine which region you are looking at?
4) I'd expect some text to describe what we're seeing, perhaps a bit of history etc.
More later when I have time to lookit.
