By Tom | Published: February 25, 2009

VR Web Design are pleased to show off our latest virtual tour using KR Pano flash player. Its the same panoramic viewer 360 Cities use, so it has the same amazing features. Quick loading and better resolution using multi resolution tiles, embedded Google maps and a right click context menu that allows the viewer to change to fisheye, stereographic, architectural, and little planet views.

The tour is of Croatia’s most famous needle beach in Bol, on Brac island.

NEW Google Gadget – Embed KML Viewer

By Tom | Published: January 30, 2009

Google have released a new embedded KML Viewer for displaying Google Earth and Google Maps easily on to your web page or blog. Firstly if you cant see the gadgets underneath you will need to install Google Earth browser plug-in You can grab the gadget from here and courtesy of 360 Cities I used my kml file for Iceland and London and hey presto !

Google Earth does require one plug-in installation but its well worth it. Happy viewing :)

Please wait for a few seconds for view to fly in just above the area…. then click 360 logo…. and you should fly into that location and be able to move around the 360 degree panorama…

For a much bigger view I have already created a full page Google Earth website, www.vrplanet.co.uk

Embed 360 cities panorama on your website or blog

By Tom | Published: January 7, 2009

This is great ! Now you can embed any of my 360 Cities virtual tours on your website or blog, for FREE… as long as you are a non-commercial outfit, that is ! I’ve got my eye on you…..! ha !

Anyway just click ‘Embed this’ check the non-commercial box, then copy and paste the code any where you like :)

Open up fullscreen for more options…

Even better.. not a lot of people know this, but thanks to new KRpano projection plug-in, if you right click, you can select different views ! My favourite is the stereographic projection ‘little planet’… Enjoy !
