Hhmm...

matter of interest, when stiching... are you selecting stiched output size???

You'll see that you can select the image size on the right hand side. Easypano will allow files up to 2500x5000 pixels.

When I take 3 shot images (jpg fine) for a tour my initial jpg's will be approx 1MB in size. When the hemis are blended and saved as bmp they'll be 9MB each (image size 1535x2048px) I'll then stich to 1500x3000 which in effect makes the images smaller then I could (here the max size being 2000x4000) to around 12mb. If I were to stich to 2000x4000 I'd have around 23mb in file size.

I have a feeling ur output file size is a tad small... hhmmm?? 

The job of Panoweaver is to do the stitch.

Once done you save the stitched images in a non lossy format. (I do not use Panoweaver to compress the image) This is left to Photoshop.

If you must use Panoweaver to give you an output file simply replace the "panorama image" with the correctly compressed and edited file you have saved from Photoshop.

HUGE files don't necessarily produce a clearer image. 4000 x 2000 is enough for fullscreen viewing.
