Virtual Open Day for Middlesex University

Hi!

We've recently finished a project for Middlesex University in London, and thought it would be a good opportunity to share it with you guys:

Looking forward to hearing what people think!

Hi! I like the design and interface a lot! It's simply astounding *thumbsup*

However, loading of the panos has obviously gone belly up - in Chrome and Opera on desktop I've got nothing but "Loading...". Eternally *cry*

Look forward to seeing the panoramas also, the tour would be really fantastic, I suppose.
Regards,

Alexey

Thanks for your comments!

Out of curiosity, could you tell me which versions of Chrome and Opera you're using? I'm not having any issues loading, so I'm interested to know what could be causing your problems.

EDIT-

Haha, no worries. Thanks for letting me know, and for taking the time to look at the tour!

Nice html javascript functions, but quite difficult to navigate from pano to pano

Thanks!

Could you let me know what you mean by difficult to navigate? Too much clicking between panos, too slow, too confusing? Any feedback would be really helpful in developing future projects.

Just one small issue: I'd stop autorotation each time the mouse hovers over the "info" and "photo" roundels. I'm now at home from work and enjoying the tour. Nice sound ambience ;-).

For me everything is to much spread.. I would recomend to have only one menu from where I could get everywhere, I can't have the idea of how many panos there are...

Also having the map inside the krpano, not as a html div would be much useful, basically it would allow you to have a nice feature like fullscreen which for me is missing to much with that litlle size....

it looks fantastic, and just down the road from me!! just full screen option as mentioned above would be nice.

was this done with just krpano? no panotour or other?

Glad you enjoyed it!

The lack of full screen was a tough choice, but there were a few elements of the project that lead to it being removed. Interestingly though, our analytics seem to show that the number of people who actually click the "full screen" buttons in our tours is relatively low - this could just be a quirk of our users, but it helped us make the decision.

And yeah, it was all built in KRPano/JavaScript - we've never really used Panotour or its equivalents.
