I love panoramas! A few usability comments:
1) I would really like the "hand" mode to be the default. It took me a while to figure out I could change it.
2) I would like an easy way to load the whole picture in my browser at full resolution so that I can scroll horizontally at will.
3) Related, one approach to 2 that I've done on another site is to automatically resize the picture to the maximum height of the user's browser when they go in view full screen mode.

- puzz 18y agoThe "hand vs scroll" issue is a problem. I asked a few of my friends but the results were 50:50. That's why I'm still not sure which one to make the default. Anyway, thank for your suggestions!
- huhtenberg 18y agoHand mode needs to be default. It's a commonly accepted UI paradigm that the mouse needs to be 'engaged' (via a button press) in order to have a functional effect on the UI. In the non-engaged mode mouse is only used for indicating otherwise actionable UI elements.
- jmtulloss 18y agoI think the hand should have some physics. If you hold and flick, the scrolling should accelerate depending on the speed of the flick.
