Flash panoramas

You all know panoramic images on panoye can be viewed in two ways: default and java viewer (thanks to Helmut Dersch's ptviewer applet).

But, since java is becoming less popular - more and more people couldn't use the second option. Thanks to Denis Chumakov's flash player, after today's upgrade you can use flash player to see all 360° panoramas.

Here's an example, Marvic's "Muela De Urbion";



To move - click on the panorama and move the mouse arrow left or right.

Partial panoramas

I am a big fan of 360° panoramas. But, of course, partial panoramas are also cool. Sometimes even better than full cylindrical panoramas. In fact, two users uploaded two very nice partial panoramas:

• Luc sur mer
• maweni

They are partial because they don't cover all 360° around the photographer. That is why the left and the right side don't fit together. Unfortunately, for the moment panoye panorama viewer don't work well with them...

But...

I'll try my best to make the viewer work well with partial panoramas. Stay tuned for updates (I hope it will be ready till sunday...).

Full spherical panoramas

Look at these three panoramas:


Isn't there something strange on the panorama of Poreč (the first one)? Well, yes... It is shot with a wide-angle lens, and it's (vertical) angle is bigger than other panoramas on the site.

In fact, from now on -- you can upload even full spherical panoramas. They can be viewed in full splendor with the java/applet viewer. Their cropped and resized image will be used for javascript panorama viewers.
