I captured a couple of screenshots, and made a little panorama-picture out of it.

Enjoy!

This is great, can you give us some details about where it is, whats version of FS you are using (looks like FSX but havnt seen water colour like that) what mesh, if any, and what scenery you may have installed as well. :thumbup:

It's FS9, with Real Environment Pro (the water) and the Geographx freeware 75 mesh and RB Topo.

I don't see the image, and the link doesn't work.
Is it just me and IE7?

That works, seems there's an issue with IE7.
This seems to work for everyone.
...interesting picture, I suppose FS doesn't distort perspective the way a real life attempt would, as it's already a flat-screen projection.
There are some fascinating possibilities here, thanks for posting.

I guess the same about IE7. I'm usiong Firefox myself, so I didn't had any problems.

The reason to, why I selected a thumbnail-picture was, because it's a very long picture (4384 x 640 pixels). And I don't want to break the rules.

The best about the picture is, that I don't even have a widescreen and dual monitor. I have a classic CRT monitor, and a great Panorama-maker program installed. Then I took a 5 pictures, and ran them through the program and... Wips... A perfect panning view of the South Island, taken from a small island placed a few miles from the coast.

Edit: Have just tried myself in IE7. And no problems here.

...and the question all the wannabe panorama makers will be asking :
What software do you use? :D

I use a program that came with my camera. There is a few freeware panorama-maker programs on the Internet, but I havn't checked them out.

Try make a search on Google.

I use photoshop to do it, not perfect, but you just make a very wide canvas and chuck 'em all on it. :P
