Over the summer, I learned how to photograph panoramic images in the field, then learned how to stitch them together into a single image in Photoshop. Tonight, I took the last step and learned how to show a set of panoramic images in a web page. While it is a bit off topic for this forum, others here might visualize how they might utilize the same technology for signs and graphics on their site.
Here's the link to the Panos page:

Actually, I can tie this into a real sign making post...
Last year, we bought a new Toyota Prius at about the time gas prices appeared to be heading for the heavens. On the back of the Prius, there is a long, thin strip of glass. I told Darla I was planning on photographing a panoramic image, then printing on the EdgeView material with our edge. (It might be called something else, but it is the material with the small holes in it for viewing through the glass as you might see on mass transit buses). After we talked about it, I started shooting various panoramic versions of the Grand Teton mountain range. Originally, we talked about me printing a nice, tasteful image for the sides of the car with Teton Images on it. After speaking with other professional photographers about it, I decided not to do it. They said putting signs on the side of the vehicles encourage theft by announcing the fact you probably have some very expensive equipment in the car. Sounded logical to me. The simple vista graphic would help identify the car without broadcasting I had photo equipment inside.Mike Jackson
