Actually Photoshop CS3 is easy to use with it comes to that--because all you have to do is pick the photos to be assembled and a couple of clicks later, they're connected (after a looooooong moment later)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

All of the photo stitching software is pretty easy to use if the shots were done right on the camera!. The secret to making nice panoramas is keeping the horizon level!. To do this you need to use a tripod!. Start on one side and pan to the other overlapping a little on each shot!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

JASC Aftershot is very easy to use!. I have stitched as many as 10 pics together to make a panorama!.
I don't use a tripod to take the pics either!. Because it is an old programme you can pick one up on Ebay quite cheaply!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have tried several and they all were about equally easy!.

I like Photomerge that comes with Photoshop Elements and recent versions of Photoshop!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
