Great!
In Maramures I've planned to make my vacation this summer. I hope to wander around for about 2 weeks and take plenty of panos! So this is a nice preview for me.
Those are handheld panos or you've used all the toys? 
I was wondering if they let you put the tripod in the church and what did you tell them!?

Personally, I think it's a nice idea to get together a postcard and a miniCD. And it get's more nicer when you get a foldable postcard in panoramic format and a cd with more panos, aka a virtual tour.
People are producing postcards and offline virtual tours for a long time. But I don't recall to ever see or buy a postcard with a miniCD attached.
The content of the cd I bet it's not limited to Windows or MacOS or whatever. It's the choice of whoever makes that virtual tour.
I like the idea because for me, as a panoramic photographer it's a way to get more exposure and reach people without internet connection or without broadband and deliver my panos to a higher quality. Also it's an additional service(product) that I can offer to my clients.
So, I don't get it, why all this fuzz about miniCDs? You don't need a high IQ to figure out that you can't use it on a slot based cd drive! Moreover it already has a warning written on the card. I even risked and tried to put it into my cd drive on my laptop (I don't have a tray) and it wouldn't suck my miniCD like it does with the normal CDs. So I stopped trying and no harm was done to my drive. But I guess that someone dumb enough will keep trying and forcing until something get's damaged...

DorinDXN said: ... using my simple highpass based sharpness.
????!??? And that is?
On my screen I must say that the maximum sharpness version looked ok. So I can live with that. I guess that the middle way is also ok, but maximum sharpness is not over sharpened in this case.
But for the moment I fail to see the usefulness of this thing. I mean, why would you generate 2 versions of the pano, to visually inspect the sharpness level and then redo sharpening to the pano?
I do the sharpening when I process the RAW files. I'm not very sure that sharpening as the last step is the right move.

The panos are looking good! But it's quite an interesting space there for an art exhibition. So, the immediate effect of you panos is that I wanted to see more of this exhibition. I guess it's a good thing

Hi Dorin,
Sounds interesting, but as Smooth said, you gave no info regarding what might be or how it will work.
Did you built a prototype? It would be nice to see examples made with this setup.
From my point of view, I would be interested in a setup that is light and easy to carry around, easy to mount/install at the location and in the same time to provide precision so I can batch stitch the panos.
I think any setup that is better than other available on the market and brings something new, is worth producing.
Also there should be interest in buying something like this if it has a nice price tag.

All right, disregard my query about technical details, I think I've replied the same time with you. My curiosity was satisfied!

Hey all, happy New Year!
Jan, I'm officially impressed!
Your night panos are so sharp! Don't look overexposed and the details in the shadows are very good. I'm very much interested in the technical details, like camera, lenses... Did you've used multiple exposures here?
I found the clock!  Yeee!
Indeed the sky looks noisy and this might be due to some higher ISO used or maybe from boosting the light in the images. I have some nightpanos shot at 200 ISO and if I'm processing the images to make them more luminous, the noise gets skyhigh.

Last night I took a walk into Bucharest, along my fellow panographer from Timisoara (aka photo41) who's having the Christmas here.
It was freezing like hell, and my camera was unavailable so I had to share his gear. We both took photos and this are mine:

Along with this post, I want to wish you all a very happy Merry Christmas and a great New Year!
Happy Holidays!

Fatchai, I see that you've updated the code, now it has full absolute links. And I get no errors for misplaced files, everything loads fine. But I cannot see the pano. This leads me to the idea that maybe there is something wrong with the p2q_embed_object.js. I mean this script could work just fine, but could be some other issues that get into conflict with the lightwindow. Ok, it's just a guess, since I don't have access to your files to make tests... All I know is that the lightwindow is working fine with mov files and other media, as seen on the demo page.
Smooth, post a link to your online tests, so I can have a look.
Really there is no hidden trick, I did exactly how the author explains in it's documentation. But I've seen that is highly sensitive to other scripts that could be in the page. I used Fiero's script for detecting the plugins, and I modified a little bit to include support for Flash panorama player. So, I really don't know how it reacts to other scripts.

fatchai said: where should this file be located? i searched the whole lightwindow directory but coulnd't locate this file...
In your wedding.html file, you have:
<script language="javascript" src="p2q_embed_object.js">
This is a relative path to the p2q_embed_object.js and is looking for this js file in the same folder that wedding.html is.
You have made a temp folder for the lightwindow testing and you are calling from that temporary folder the wedding.html file. And wedding.html is trying to load p2q_embed_object.js from that temporary folder.
Simply put, just copy p2q_embed_object.js in your lightwindow folder. Should work.
Or use absolute paths for the js files, like James said.

Shanti is right. It's about Flash panorama player, XML and some custom flash bits.

Well... let's see.
Besides the obvious features that helps managing the photo collection, and I'm thinking about tags, collections, folders, the Lightroom is pretty good at processing the RAW files.
I'm using it and I'm happy about it. After I make all the corrections to the photos, I export them to TIFF and stitch them.
But I guess any other alternative is good if you know how to use it properly and at least it has the basic processing of RAW files, like WB, sharpen, levels, CA, noise reduction, exposure settings, etc.
What are other alternatives you're thinking about? I know that Lightroom is in the same category with Aperture, but unfortunatelly I don't have a Mac, to try it...

Fatchai, you messed up the paths to the JS files.
The requested URL /temp/lightwindow/p2q_embed_object.js was not found on this server.
So, if p2q_embed_object.js is not found and loaded then it's normal to have a blank page in the lightwindow...
