Nick,
Interesting concept you have there. I tried the Dambusters Dam (
was it 635 Squadron?) and the first pano crashed the QT plugin. I am
not surprised since the QT plugin is so "Bloated" now. I for one
will not use the QT plugin because of it's size to the user that has
to download it. Most will get tired of waiting in order to see a web
page and click away. Using .mov is great, so why don't you consider
another plugin that is smaller in size that will support .mov?
Fiero Duval plugin is one that looks very promising. His viewer is
great. He has some great pages in his gallery.
Just my 2p's worth.
