Yuv, Currently Hugin lays the photo out flat. I assume that FreePV and others "chop" the photo up so that the viewer can see it. I also assume this is what happens with Philospheres.
I'd like to do something similar on paper. We have a local printer that does a fairly good job, and would like to use him. I'm doing it as a demo of what can be done to encourage others to look at photography outside of the 8x10. I've seen some displays that are "square" whereas I'd like one that was cicular, like a tire. Didn't know if this was possible. Am I missing something?
