Distribute your images and panorama files to anyone [Advertising]

I'm sending this emai to the list to let you know about a new program, called Pano2exe.

Pano2exe is intended to convert panoramic 360° JPEG images into stand-alone executable programs.
It also can create installation packages to distribute your panoramas or images.
There are several advantages in converting panoramas to self-executable files (*.EXE) instead of distributing them as QuickTime movies:

1. Quality.
JPEG images do not display color banding. So skies and other backgrounds can be shown with
excellent definition.

2. Smallness.
JPEG images are smaller than QuickTime movies. The size of the viewer attached to the
images is only 66 KB.

3. Facility of use.
Not all people have QuickTime installed. Only a self-executable file (*.EXE) can grant
you that all people you sent a panorama will view it.

Pano2exe can also creates installers, so you can include one or more panorama files into a professional looking install package. 
The uninstall feature is included.
Pano2exe allows adding sounds (in .WAV format) to the installations, so sounds can play while panoramas are shown.

Note: You can install QuickTime and JPEG files are supported only in the registered version. The unregistered version can create installation including self-executable 
panorama files and .WAV sounds.

I will glady answer any question regarding the program.
