could you clarify what the file format is?

what is the size in SVG if 50GB is not SVG?

any examples of other websites or applications that display similar scale fractals? so we can see how their UI/implementation works.

thanks

File would be *.png format (a raster image)

As a quick response, there is no way that the servers could scale this image.

No one will be able to download it either, it'll just take an age...

At that point, uploading a 50GB image really isn't going to happen, there's just no point

Ok, what's the max dimensions/size you could handle,
so i'll try to upload a reduced version ?

1 GB is the limit from upload wizard. Given your usecase, I think we should stick to that limit as the max.
