With regard to the Java notice on the client's website, I have no idea why it's there either...but I've gone several rounds with them on other matters and really do not want to get into it with them on that topic. It's a holdover from their previous tours.
As for HDR, I sometimes use PhotomatixPro...but most often I do a lot of Photoshop work...combining (pasting, etc.) outdoor exposures with the indoor. It takes time but I feel like it sets my tours apart from most.
The client wanted single scene tours because that is what has been on their website for years. If you want to see an example of those old tours, click on the Lounge and Lobby, Winery or Sister Properties tabs on their site. They are REALLY bad. I had nothing to do with them. I may be re-doing those some time this Spring. The oversaturated colors in many of the tours was a special request of the client...I couldn't talk them out of it. In my opinion, some of the exterior shots are hideously oversaturated...but...the client is always right.
I've re-done all the tours without the image-loading progress bar and sent them to the client...so I assume the new tours will be up within a week.
Today, I'm working on my first multi-scene real estate tour with Tourweaver...a $4.3 miliion house on the banks of the Colorado River. Hopefully, I'll have it up on my website in the next few days.
