Panorama Tools 1.7.2

[Helmut Dersch <der@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Improvements to version 1.7.1:

- Photoshop version: Transformed images are now written in Photoshop
  format including an alpha channel masking valid image data.
  This makes it easier to manually stitch and edit panoramas:
  Each image can be put into one layer of the final panoramic
  image, and aligned separately.
  
- Correction of the stitching algorithm, which sometimes
  placed the seam incorrectly.
  
- Correction of a math-bug in the conversion routine
  fisheye-to-QTVR (error if FOV > 180 degrees).
  
Panorama Tools is a free Photoshop/Gimp plug-in (PC & Mac & Linux) which 
can be used to generate, edit and transform many kinds of 
panoramic images. Check the Readme file at my site for more
info, and download 'Panorama Tools 1.7.2' if you like it.


PS: Pls also check my new page on creating perspectively corrected
images using fisheye lenses:
