You can also go to Microsoft and download Photo Story....Then you can make a movie of photos adding music, text and voice over....pretty simple and free

No a friend does and he swears by it...I looked at it and it seems pretty cool.

Free? But I thought you got what you paid for. If you don't pay for it, do you still get it?

Seriously, that can do virtual tours? Sounds good.

It is free, it does work, it is simple and it will make a movie from photos which in my opinion is a picture, virtual tour.

I'm thinking of a virtual tour that lets you use the mouse to move around a room, looking up, down, left, and right.

Right


Are you just "thinking about it" or do you do them?

Jerry what you describe is what I am contemplating. A realtor friend of mine says the local agents love it for their MLS listings. Most of the bigger RE offices use a big company that offers it but here in the D/FW area there are hundreds of smaller real estate brokers. I figured someone on this board is currently using a virtual tour package of some kind...I looked at Tourweave 7.5 and it looks pretty good and wouldn't break the bank

In real estate photography that isn't even close to a virtual tour. A virtual tour has to be interactive so the viewer can back up, make choices, etc.

Is your idea to create virtual tours and host them on a server somewhere yourself?
