Many people have told me that 'virtual tours' need to be more than just images - that's just what Tourweaver 3.00 creates (and it uses Flash).
You can see an example on www.photopanorama.co.uk/ - if you want to see this 'full screen' either select 'View the HD version' link just below the virtual tour, or click this www.photopanorama.co.uk/pages/full_screen/index.h...

When I wrote this review (in Oct 2005) - I was using V3 & although V4 had been introduced (with the ability to stitch 'None full-frame' fisheye images) I still prefered the results using a 'full-frame' camera.
However V5 is a MASSIVE improvement. It's use of the 'smartblend plugin' totally removes the brightness-falloff that I get with the Sigma 8mm lens & it's selection of 'stitching points' is awesome (I rareley have to change these).
The image at www.photopanorama.co.uk/lancaster/niche_cafe/_qtv... only had a small area of the ceiling retouched + some minor 'photoshop' work.
Version 5 is awesome.....
