I was taking a bunch of images the other day, later I made them in to panoramic image. So I thought today it would be cool to see them work with my full screen class.


Edit: also after I made the horizontal pan it came to me that my normal images where being crop in order to scale proportionally. Now you can pan normal images vertical to see all of the image as well.

How did you have the exact same vertical base for all your pictures?? In other words, how in the hell if you're just "taking a bunch pictures" did you manage not to tilt the tiniest degree up or down between a photo?

Science Fiction!

edit: but really it's just one image I made in Photo shop CS3 that I pan left to right on.

I prefer the feel of this one: http://www.boshpk.co.uk/imageGallery/

Yours is just a bit too slow.

thanks for sharing. That's cool. There is a small difference from me though. I'm not trying to make an image catalog. My aim is mostly background images that scale with the browser so that on side of the image fits the browser proportionally and the other side pans. Plus in full screen mode the speed feels just about the same, but I can see a smoother movement in the preview.

I'm gonna add a new update that increase the fps to about 50 and I'm gonna add cacheAsBitmap to see if that helps.

You should also note the file size of the image my be a factor. the panorama image is some 600KBs in size. Yet that site may have a smaller image taking less resources.

Yeah I just meant the scrolling aspect of the other thing.

Yeah that'll probably do the trick.

By no means is this the only piece of software that will automatically stitch together your photos, but I found it to be the best of the ones I've tried... http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~mbrown/autostitch/autostitch.html

Take as many or as few photos as you like, just make sure they have some overlapping sections. Open them with AutoStitch, press go, and within seconds you've got a flawless stitch.
