Say good bye to QuickTime
Users might notice a changed format in some of the virtual tours. When Apple released its latest operating systems, Snow Leopard, it signaled that QuickTime would no longer support QTVR (the format of the panoramic and spherical images, which Apple pioneered) in future versions. Thus, we are converting all the QuickTime movies to Flash format. The downside is that this conversion will take a little time. No hurry. QuickTime will continue to have legacy support for QTVR in the foreseeable future, so users will be able to use the project with no interruption. The upside is that Flash is a better interface for QTVR movies. Users will especially appreciate Flash's "fullscreen" option. After a sufficient number of sites have been converted to Flash, we will change the help screens to highlight the differences in flash.
