Building Panoramic Images in The GIMP

Panoramic landscapes make for some amazing photos. There's nothing like the feeling of relaxation and tranquility gained by gazing over the vivid images of sweeping wilderness, minus the hassle of actually getting there. Using a digital camera, it's possible to stitch photos together to simulate the expensive effects of a landscape filter. After I'd bought my digital camera (a Nikon Coolpix 4300) and set it up to work under Linux, getting software to stitch photos together was my next task.

Yes, its against the GPL, but H. Dersch just didn't release them and doesn't answer to mails about it.

Actually, I have already written a new, completely opensource stitcher (nona), based on the opensource pano12 library. that library is the base of the binary only helper programs PTStitcher & PTOptimizer.

It is included in the hugin distribution.

The panorama tools distribution at sourceforge, already includes an opensource PTOptimizer.

So you can already use hugin on PPC, just the last "stitch" button in hugin doesn't work yet (haven't incorporated nona yet..). So you have to run the stitcher from the shell.
