Stitcher3.1 ( free on issue 55 of 3D world ) But there is a possibility they sold out, because they where also giving away Vue 3 on that issue.

I have a tripod and a chance to take some photos right now. Should I take how many and how many degrees apart?

as many as you can at 10 degrees apart, less distortion overall

Electroglyph, it depends on the focal length of your lens. Wide angles are preferable but the idea is for each frame to overlap the previous by at least 30 degrees so that you can get enough overlapping detail to make a proper stitch. Exposure should be consistant to have as little color cast problems as possible.

Thuleke, Stitcher 3.1 is a good program and it was also on the August 2004 issue of Computer Arts magazine also for free and is where I got my copy from. You can try Dr. Helmut Dersch's PanoTools (Freeware command line plug-ins), comes with Photoshop plug-ins, do a Googles search. Several frontend gui applications are on the market some costing as much as $60 USD. Heres more info:

P.S.

The PanoTools package contains applets that creates the panoramas; pteditor and ptpicker which require java runtime environment to be installed on your system in order for them to work. If you dont have java already installed or need the upgrade (latest version is 1.4.2_05) then it can be downloaded from here:
