Hugin Panorama Software

So I discovered Hugin today.

In ubuntu, it installs as you would expect, just add it under the Software tab.

In Windows, the installation is a little more involved. Download the usual setup from the main website and extract it into a directory. Run Hugin to start using it... however, we don't yet have all the magic, due to patent restrictions. To get the remaining magic, head to here, and add the extra executables from the bin directory of the second download into the bin directory of the first download (but don't overwrite anything). *Now* when you run hugin.exe the wizard should be effective.

Works best with high-res, in-focus photos, with a decent amount of overlap.

This program is just magical.
