Abstract
A method, system and apparatus for the selectable repainting of updatable network distributable imagery. A method for selectably repainting updatable network distributable content can include establishing a repainting selection selected from the group consisting of continuous repainting and delayed repainting. The method further can include rendering a complete view of the updatable network distributable content. The method yet further can include receiving portions of an image update to the complete view. Finally, the method can include repainting the complete view as the portions are received if the repainting selection indicates continuous repainting, and otherwise delaying a repainting of the complete view until a threshold portion of the portions have been received.
