Create a cool panorama with your photos
March 20, 2008
Creating a huge panorama from several shots may seem inaccessible to many people. However, the assembly of several photographs into one huge one is extremely simple, thanks to the software AutoStitch.
Even if your photos don’t overlap perfectly or the lighting is different or there are other discrepancies, AutoStitch will have a go at making the best of them and can easily create a convincing panorama.
A simple crop will then enable you to delete unnecessary parts of your picture, which you can then publish on Internet, print on paper or send it to your friends.
After your first attempt, there is no doubt that you can look at the landscape and not take more photos in the same way.
After installing AutoStitch follow steps below to create a perfect panorama
1. By default, AutoStitch reduces the size panoramas at 1400 pixels wide and compresses images in JPEG format with a capacity of only 75%. To get a better result, we advise you not to resize the image or the compress.
2. Double click on the shortcut you created to launch the software.
3. A warning window appears. Click on Run. Uncheck the Always ask before opening the file for not warning that the next time when you run AutoStitch.
4. In the main window of AutoStitch, click on the Edit menu and then Options.
5. In the area Output Size, select Scale.
6. Attach it to 100%.
7. In the area Other Options, click in the field JPEG Quality and enter 100 in place of 75.
8. Finally, click the OK button.
Creating the panorama
1. Back in the main window AutoStitch, click on the File menu and then click Open.
2. In the window of Explorer, go to the folder where the pictures to combine for your panorama.
3. To facilitate the selection, you can view thumbnails of images by clicking on the Display icon and then Miniatures.
4. Then select all the images to be combined and then click the Open button.
