Hi Fatchai,

I live in the USA, so we did the lesson online with ICQ Chat. We exchanged files via ftp, and typed back and forth with my questions and his answers.

It worked out real good for me,

I just wanted to let you all know I just took a class with Smooth. It was great....   I would highly suggest his class to anyone who is interested in expanding their abilities in panoramic photography.

I learned everything I wanted and more. He was very easy to communicate with and was very knowledgeable about the problems I was having and how to fix them. I'm going to take a few more classes with him in the next few weeks.

I just wanted to chime in here!  I contacted Smooth about coaching me and it was a great help!  I have recently sold a company that was doing one shot tours (we did over 3,000 in the last 2 1/2 years), but I like this technology so much better.  I purchased PW, TW and Desktop Author and tried to stumble through the materials on the sites.  I got a little stuck and couldn't get my products finished.  Smooth helped me via IM and got me over the parts that had me stuck.  He was very patient and did a great job of walking me through step by step.  I was concerned about how well it would go via IM, but he has so much knowledge about the products that we never had miscommunications about what was going on.  He taught me quickly and completely, and I feel confident that I'll be able to pull everything together now.  And if not, I know he can help me get back on track.  I would absolutely recommend contacting Smooth if you are having trouble.  Reasonable rates and excellent help!

Thanks Smooth!

Mighty nice of you to post your comments

Very glad to have a student that understood this Aussie and his ramblings! Let me just say you made the teaching a pleasure. Watch out for them "White Pointers"

I know this isn't relevant to the subject, but I am new to this thing, and wondering about the diffeneces between the Panoweaver and Tourweaver. They look to be able to do the same things, but Tourweaver allows you to customize and add on extras, am I right? Does a person need both to create virtual tours? I couldn't find a feature comparison on the site. Also, do you have to buy the executable software to put tours on your own website? I guess there may be another thread for these questions. So, pardon me

G'day bhale,

Welcome to the Easypano forums.

Panoweaver is a fisheye stitching program where as Tourweaver is a tour building program (Tourweaver does not stitch the images) it allows you to build a tour with multiple scenes, hotspots, still images with many other options.

Panoweaver does the hard work of stitching the images and does offer a single panorama scene output in to formats Java Applet and Quicktime.

Once you output from either of these programs you can upload the tours to your website for Internet display.

Regards, Smooth
