If you are trying to self-promote that website, at least be upfront about it.

Also, it seems that some of the images posted by wzqhzsc (which I
assume is you, since this nickname has posted the same message as you
on other forums) are not his.

http://www.you3dview.com/video/138/Night-panorama-of-Concordia is

is (c) Red Door VR Limited (http://www.red-door.co.uk/index.html) as
can be seen in the image http://www.you3dview.com/flvideo/141/141.jpg

Reasons enough not to comment on the quality of the website itself.

And http://www.you3dview.com/video/140/Tikal-Mexico is just the same
panorama as here:
http://mexpedition.blogspot.com/2009/04/tikal-spherical-panorama.html
Of course the quality of the initial image is much better.

I will stop now.

Thanks for pointing out. These panorama are for test purpose. I made
them as private.

that's unacceptable! you've misused images without a license. this is
like taking a bus ride without paying a ticket; just say sorry or made
them private is not enough. You have no rights to use them unless given
explicit permission by the copyright holder. You can find images that
you can use by searching flickr for equirectangulars that are licensed
under Creative Common licenses. And even there, you must abide by the
licensing terms, i.e. if they say no commercial use or no derivative,
respect it.

you wouldn't like it that people steal your software, would you? or take
your car for a ride?

owner of the images should send a DMCA notice to your host at
ab...@dreamhost.com and get you down.

Are you going to take down all the stolen pictures,
or do you expect us to point them out one-by-one?

Thanks for the link.  While I do understand what people are saying about copyright, I'm glad you shared the link.  It has potential.

Do you know if the images get clearer?

I'd be interested in using the site to host some of my pano's.  It appears to be easy for a user to navigate through.

Learn quite a lot about copyright and license from your guys.
Will do our best to remove the images with copyright issues.

Just curious about copyright and license. Seems Google Image indexed
these panorama images and even cache them. Probably we will just crawl
as Google and just provide an index/search engine automatically and
allow people to view the panorama pictures by our viewer. As Google,
we can exclude the websites that have 'No Robot' text file. Is it
visible regarding to copyright/license issue?

Or provide an online flash panorama viewer which can view any panorama
pictures based on the user given URL.

But will still allow people who hold the copyright to upload as well.

Thanks for your encourage to give us more motivation to continue
improving it.
We are also thinking of supporting automatic stitching panorama
pictures by our server and allowing to manually polish/edit panorama
afterward on our website.

It will load low quality preview images first and get clearer
afterward.
The image itself does not get clearer. But the website will allow to
zoom, pan and tilt.

there is a big difference between what you are doing and what Google does.

i don't like to deal with this stuff. there are licenses out there.
those who do not respect them deserve to meet my lawyer.

Honestly, I do not know what you are pursuing with this.
