| THIS IS A HOOT! Great fun. Has anybody on WGAN tried it? Couple questions: 1) Can this be done using a Mac? I know that a lot of cool stuff of this nature is PC only.  2) Was it easy or time-consuming to create? Would love to know! |

| Hi there, I am the creator/inventor of PanoPuzzle Can you use it on a Mac - it's stuff to put on a web site so you can access it from a Mac/PC/Mobile but it is NOT an application - just check out my live version with a browser of your choice Was it time consuming Yes it was - but that was me programming. Will it be time consuming for you?? Depends how far you want to go. My current live version has over 80 panoramas in 7 collections - so no matter how and what you do - you will have to write some text/links/prepare images.... for all of them. If you want to try it on your server - and yes you need either a web site or you can use a local server - it can be as easy as putting 6 images in a directory and you can start to play. One of the examples on GitHub - the grid demo can be used. You just put 6 images in a directory and you can start to play. That's what Mic did for his 360rumors example and others. |

| @kronpano Thanks for joining the WGAN Forum and for your post; including the links. Have you given some thought to an easy-peasy template for newbies? For example, use this code and add one 360? Or, for non-techs like me: 1. Go to your website 2. Upload one 360 3. Receive an email back with iFrame to add to your website 4. (include in the iFrame: Courtesy of PanoPuzzle and link back to your site) 5. Want the courtesy of PanoPuzzle removed, pay x per month for hosting. Thoughts? -- What have been your favorite implementations by others? Business use case? Fun for kids? Best, Dan |

| I have thought about a web service but that is probably not going to happen. The framework which is provided via GitHub is something that runs in a browser - just javascript. There is no backend, no server or anything like that - and some of that would be needed to make it into a service as you describe it. If it turns out that there is a bit of interest I will keep developing it but I am not sure if I can actually make it into a service - it is more likely to end up being a plugin for krpano, marzipano or other VT creation tools. Business use case I have to say it is questionable that there is a use in a professional environment. It does prolong the time people spend "in" a panorama (analytics says about 2 minutes per pano) but how to translate that into something "useful" for a business - frankly - I'm not sure. I use it on PanoPuzzle to link to "real" virtual tours or software I used in the process Fun for kids Definitely - lots of them seem to like some of the generated environments and they get very excited when the can solve a puzzle of a place they know (ages 5-10). Favourites by others People have literally just started using it - the code only went onto GitHub about a week ago. |

| @kronpano Thanks for the backstory. It is FUN! Perhaps a WGAN Member will have an idea you (and they) can make money with it! Best, Dan |
