Photoshop Elements $99. Automatically merges photos using "Photomerge." It's from Adobe.

Panorama Factory. $59.95. My friends who have it, love it.

The Yin and Yang stage at the Ft Worth Japanese Gardens. I was too close to see the whole thing. (1977k)
The Japanese Gardens. This is a 7 photo merge, and it's a big file. (2312k)
The Iowa Genealogical Society. Notice that there were 3 photos, and the middle one was blurry. Don't do that. (556k)
My living room. Notice that I didn't have a flat axis, so the picture is skewed. There were 4 photos in the mix. (988k)
