Create Quicktime VR Panoramas

Step 5GIMPing (Optional)

GIMPing (Optional)

Open up your newly created pano.jpg, and look at the file dimmensions. The width should be exactly twice the height. (EXACTLY!) If it's not, you can use the GIMP to fix it. As well as some other problems that might arize. I wont go into too much detail, for the GIMP stuff, but I'll give you some general info, on problems.

If the image is less than half as tall as it is wide, you'll need to heighten it. DON'T stretch the image. It'll look weird, in the final version. What you want to do is, however many pixels are missing from the top, copy that many pixels from the top of the information that is there, paste it, flip it vertically, and afix it to the top. It might look weird, if you look straight up in your VR, but atleast it wont look weird just looking around.

If you get an uneven black area at the top of bottom, you could try to edit this away, and replace it with what tou think should go there, but I found this to be a near impossible task, so good luck.

I reccomend just taking the picture again.

If you want, mess with the colour levels, brightness, contrast, etc., etc., now is the time to do it.
