I love using Picasa for organizing, fixing up, cropping, and storing online my photos. One tool Picasa currently lacks is a way to stitch multiple photos together to create a panoramic photo. A quick Google search brought me the tool I was looking for: Microsoft’s ICE “Image Composite Editor.” It is quick and easy to use. ICE even uses multiple processor cores if you have a newer computer. Get Microsoft ICE here.
Here is a recent creation I made using this tool. This is from my trip to Peru:




Very nice pano. Would love to see this uploaded to Photosynth. It’s easy to do via the upload to photosynth button in ICE.
