FlashPanos

Welcome!

You might be here to find exciting and useful add-ons for and information about Flash Panorama Player... Well, we think you've come to the right place! [update] If you've come here to find useful information, user forums and more for Flash based VR panorama/virtual tour players like krpano, lucid viewer, pano2vr, etc -- well, you've still come to the right place!

FlashPanos.com began after two FPP users (and FPP evangelists!), Patrick Cheatham and Zephyr Renner, began posting their FPP plugins and updates to the Flash Panorama Player forums. Patrick and Zephyr also began talking off-list, and decided a better way to present user-contributed plugins for FPP would be on a third-party site. FlashPanos is born! Read on for more...

FlashPanos.com is owned, hosted and maintained by Patrick, and updated by both Zephyr and Patrick. FlashPanos.com, Patrick and Zephyr are not officially endorsed by nor affiliated with Flash Panorama Player in any way, except as happy customers.

As predicted by many, Flash has become the delivery vehicle of choice for the serious virtual tour. FlashPanos is filling a niche by giving all an opportunity to discuss their options, quandaries, faves, rants and raves all in one place.

We hope you find the plugins and information at FlashPanos helpful. If you are an FPP user and would like to contribute a plugin, tutorial or template, please contact Patrick or Zephyr.

As of April 01, 2008 (no kidding!), Zephyr and Patrick have also posted their open source Flash panorama viewer initiative -- the Flashpanos.com Open Source Panorama Viewer based on Papervision 3D. Enjoy!

Cheers!
