You would have all heard of java and quicktime -

```
   Some may have heard of qtvr or virtual tours.

```

Well at the moment in the virtual tour world there is a big problem with the amount of people who have these plughins to view the software.

```
   Quicktime is the best quality eg [here](http://www.lincs360.co.uk/001)
   
   Java has more % coverage but its old fashioned and not so great. eg.[here](http://www.lincs360.co.uk/house)

```

Now this is where you come in - Flash on the otherhand is great - interactive and good % coverage. It can cope with sliding virtual tours ok (eg a pic going left and right)

```
   But not a sperical vitrual tour - the best is [here Using a circular masking technique.](http://www.lincs360.co.uk/flash/)
   
   Right you lot! :p: If any one out there can do better than this I would be very greatfull!!

```

The idea - if i can explain - I imagine the best way is to create a cube with the view in the middle - and on this cube add a picture to each side - 4 around the sides and 1 top and one bottom. - as you move the mouse like the other tours the cube will revolve and as the pictures are already made to fit - you won’t see the edges. [- here are some picture to play with –](http://www.lincs360.co.uk/pics/)-

```
   I realise its hard to explain so shoot with questions - I would love to know "can it be done properly???"

```

Good luck - $100 for the best one! (paypal)

update -[just had a look at this box by flashloaded - here](http://www.flashloaded.com/3dbox.php)

This shows it can be done - the view should be inside the box though and the cube should be the same dimensions. - (look at the picture render)

:jail:help me !
