Picture perfect panoramas. An awe-inspiring horizon can never fit into a single
picture. Many people take multiple shots and patch them together. The results
seem to lessen the effect.
Autopano.com offers a program to make any panoramic picture perfect.
Download and install a free demonstration. Autopano searches within folders to
find panoramic scenes automatically. The program pastes them together
seamlessly to produce a single image. Shading and color correction is built in.
The site boasts no limits to the number of pictures it can combine. You can make
an image as large as 300,000 x 300,000 pixels using 300 pictures.
Autopano will work on Macs or PCs. However, you should check your specs –
this is not for grandma's old computer. The program must be purchased to remove
watermarks and utilize all features.

OmniFormat. Want to convert that unwieldy bitmap image to a JPEG? Or that
Word document to a TIFF image file? How about converting that GIF file to a
handsome PDF? If you can tolerate some ads, OmniFormat can do it for free.
To use this handy utility, you create a target folder, called a "Watch" folder.
OmniFormat watches the folder and converts anything sent to it. We found that
converting files was generally as fast as copying files into that folder. It supports
more than 75 file formats, according to the vendor. It also allows you to create
PDF files by selecting the Print command from within most applications. (Note:
Before you can use OmniFormat, you must first install an ad-supported PDF
creation utility, PDF995.)

AutoStitch. So your vacation pictures are starting to pile up, and you're looking
for some free editing tools? Consider this panoramic stitching program: It's fully
functional, and it does a decent job.

Though the program doesn't have much of a user interface, it could hardly be
easier to use: Just select your series of photos, and AutoStitch automatically lines
them up and stitches them together.

If you like the result, save your finished panorama. You don't get any frills, and
the advanced options are too geeky for most people. But it certainly is free.
