Don't loading extra big sprite images (width=57600px)
I use extra big image as frame sequence for animation (sprite image). The image's width is 57600 px, height = 160px, weight = 1.85 mb. All modern browsers can load and show this image, but Firefox can't. FF also can't show the image by direct url to file.
image demo: http://e-nicko.ru/projects/magicwalls/imgtest.htm image source url: http://e-nicko.ru/projects/magicwalls/imgs/sphere3.jpg
Live demo complete project where used this images for animation: http://e-nicko.ru/projects/magicwalls/
FF Console says: "Syntax Error Image corrupt or truncated: ... Components is not defined"
also in FF javascript IMG .complete says "true" O_o
Please could anyone help me to fix it or explain why it's going so.

On Windows, Firefox 4 and later traditionally has failed on images larger than 32,766 pixels in any direction. You're not the first person to find this annoying: https://support.mozilla.org/search?a=1&w=2&q=32,766.
I'm not sure when this might get fixed...
Ow, got it. Thank you for your kind reply.
Hope it will be fixed in future FF updates...
I'm not sure if it is that issue. On Linux this would normally work, but it shows a white image. Interesting is that Firefox 3.6 shows the first part of the image, but with wrong colors.
Maybe it is worth to file a bug about this issue.
